I voted "Politician." I have seen many peaceful pro-life demonstrations and I know that all it takes is one "heathenistic liberal politician" to boil the blood of the self-appointed defenders of the unborn.

Idiot over-sensitive Christians are just as bad as idiot over-sensitive Muslims are just as bad as idiot over-sensitive Jews...

When is everyone going to learn to save themselves and let other people save themselves?

Wow. How many flags and cars did they burn? Maybe they shot a random novellist or movie producer to hammer their point home.

While fundamentalist Islam is significantly worse and more dangerous than the Christian fundamentalism, the have shot abortion doctors and burned books.

If you choose to focus on what Christians protest then it proves that you have a double standard regarding free speech i.e. people are only free to say things you like.

Why don't you instead focus on how they protest. In the examples given, there were no incidences of violence, arson, or murder.

Consider how muslims protest:

* Author Salman Rushdie goes into hiding to escape death sentence by Iranian Ayatollah.

*Invasion of Iraq: Muslim youth group threatens to conduct hotel sweeps for foreigners and expell them from the country.

*Artist stabbed to death in the streets of Denmark for making a documentary film critical of Islam.

*Caricatures of Muhammad: Danish embassy ransacked. In Jakarta, protesters attack the American embassy by throwing bottles claiming the caricatures originated from the US.

* Pope's quotation of historical event:

1. Eh, keyword: invasion. Are you really using this one as an example??

2. It was the Netherlands, not Denmark.

3. next time you provide a long ass link i suggest you do this:

[url= your website] this is how you do it[/url]
