To answer the OP's question: no. Islamic terrorists don't blow crap up, hijack planes, etc due to pop singers. They've got plenty of other things to motivate themselves these days anyway.
Korean missionaries in Muslim countries are more likely to cause problems for the ROK than its pop singers... |

You really think people are confused about that?
Seems like people wanted you to rethink your position on what you wrote earlier in this thread. |

| Steelrails is a Christian, therefore, mocking religion is not 'proper'. Steelrails is not an atheist, therefore atheists should learn respect and not mock religions. Absolutely astounding reasoning from him as always. |

It's like waving the Confederate flag in a black family's face. I defend your right to do so, and you may even have good reasons, but don't be shocked when people ask you to stop and think you're a complete jerk for doing so and things escalate from there. |
As per usual... terrible analogy.
But if you want to totally change the context, then a more accurate analogy would be if the black family believed they could threaten, beat down or kill anyone who did anything they deemed offensive to ALL blacks, no matter how trivial, like if an Asian producer put a quote from MLK into one of his songs and they demanded he change it and apologize to all blacks immediately or suffer the consequences.
(Yes, it's a weird analogy too, but so is the idea of threatening to kill over some pop song content, especially when it's just a random quote done artfully, without actually saying anything bad about the religion itself.) |
