It is o.k. to dis Catholics, but not o.k. to dis Muslims? Who knows how many Catholics are sensitive concerning the Inquisition.

IDK, maybe it's just because the Spanish Inquisition is a little less relevant nowadays.

The Catholics have reformed so much since the Holocaust, and the Pope apologized to those who died in the Inquisition. anyway when the Spanish Inquisition started, even the Pope condemned its actions.

I just had this visual, like the Prophet's face was drawn on the sidewalks with colored chalk and all of the faithful were walking on it, marching over cartoons of the Prophet.

I must admit, I had a very similar thought after reading the title to this thread. Yay for literalism.
