Religious Fanatics Really Need Better Hobbies

Storm grows over Mohammad cartoons

Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan was quoted as saying the cartoons -- one depicting the founder of Islam wearing a turban resembling a bomb --showed press freedom should have its limits.

Muslims consider it sacrilegious to produce a likeness of the Prophet Mohammad.

(CNN has chosen to not show the cartoons in respect for... a silly superstition and it's delusional adherents.)

"Any insult to the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) is an insult to more than 1 billion Muslims and an act like this must never be allowed to be repeated," Afghan President Hamid Karzai said in a statement.

Because no one should ever do anything that might offend to those who confuse fantasy with reality??

In continuing protests, Palestinian gunmen shut the European Union office Thursday in Gaza City, writing on the door that the office would remain closed until the Europeans apologize to Muslims, Palestinian security sources told CNN.

Wearing masks, the men -- from Islamic Jihad and the al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the armed wing of Fatah -- fired bullets into the air and one of them read demands.

Palestinian officials said the gunmen were threatening to kidnap European workers if the European Union did not apologize.

Clearly, these are rational people who deserve our respect.
