To: Pope Pius XII
But if you don't believe in something then why not insult it? That is what those people think, so it's fine. You cannot apply rational, common sense thought to their pathetic gestures.

I have a feeling that not many people around here would have ever seen this silly French fashion magazine anyway.

You've got to just let these little people do what they do and move on. When it comes down to it, free speech is free speech. It ain't against the law to insult a whole bunch of people. And these guys have to try and sell their magazine. I'm just not sure that THIS battle is worth fighting.

But yet you said,

” Take care of your own house and stop worrying about everyone else. This does not hurt any religion. It just offends those who are easily offended.”

Apparently you didn’t like what I had to say. How would you like it if she had posed as the Prophet Mohammed? Or as mocking the Holocaust? Would you support that?

Do you not see that mocking peoples’ religious beliefs is disrespectfully insulting them?
