Well, maybe we have different viewpoints, but I just don't see laughing about God as healthy. I think there has to be a limit to free speech. I mean, I take Jesus (a.s) as a Prophet, not a God, and I am certain that he would be very upset with the idea of believers mocking their God. I think he'll be against TOTAL freedom of speech as well.

There is a limit on free speech; for example, it is illegal to shout "Fire!" in a crowded theater. Blasphemy is not actually dangerous. It may be offensive to you, but there are no protections against being offended.
"I take Jesus (a.s) as a Prophet, not a God,"
I thought you xians believe that Jesus is the son of God. Anyway, God pisses me off. Now there, there, I have gone and upset Jesus.
What, are you seriously saying that free speech should only extend to stuff that nobody minds hearing?
The only speech that needs to be protected is that which would offend someone, idiot.

You agree, then, to stop hating gays, to stop persecuting non-Christians, to leave Liberals on their own, treat blacks like they're human too, and give women equality.
Thought not. Hypocrite.
If your god is against something then he can come down here and pull an OT miracle and let us know. Magic finger writing on the wall, burning bush with booming voice, anything along that line.
We won't hold our breath.

Then it's no longer free speech. Further, if God has an issue with any of this, he's more than welcome to come down and tell us to knock it off. He was never afraid to do it in the Bronze Age...funny that the moment people started to document things, he became less and less involved.
That's very fundamentalist Muslim of you. They have the same issue with Mohammad.
That's because he is a Muslim. Did the "I take Jesus (a.s) as a prophet, not a God" not tip you off? image

So, why do you assume he's an xian if he doesn't believe Jesus is the son of God? image

Huh... I must have missed the part in this thread where he came in and answered "No" to that question. image
Way to miss the point, smiley freak. You're obviously not familiar with the concept of the rhetorical question.
As for Dbzmaniax: Isn't it insulting your deity to think he could be offended by anything we insignificant mortals can say or do? Shouldn't he be above all that pettiness? I wouldn't care if the ants in my back yard were mocking me, after all.
Yes, we have different viewpoints, which is why we need freedom of speech.
If God doesn't like mocking, he can appear on the news and let us know. He has been suspiciously quiet on the subject. Either he doesn't care, can't do anything about it, or he doesn't exist.
Oh, and we're laughing at the followers, not the gods.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
