I stand with Charlie Hebdo, as we all must, to defend the art of satire, which has always been a force for liberty and against tyranny, dishonesty and stupidity,” said Rushdie, who was the subject of a fatwa, or religious edict, calling for his assassination in the 1980s.

Thanks, I think most reasonable and rational people do!

As jy nie “satire” verstaan nie, verstaan jy nie die lewe nie. Ek is bevrees dis die oorgrote meerderheid….

Ja el sê mos mense word dommer by die dag, een dimensioneel.

I am not a believer as such, but do have certain beliefs that a more Christian than anything else. I also think that all religions have something that can be exploited with satire, If we can still smile at out way of life things are still OK. The problem comes when extremists start killing people to force their beliefs on others and can`t see the harm in it. Religion is a personal thing and should only concern the individual

Yes I live and let live and I don’t see why other should force their beliefs onto me. But these barbaric behaviors are completely unacceptable! The newspaper was published in the West and I suppose stupid uninformed individuals will never understand satire,

Ek stem! Party mense kan egter nie ‘n grap vat nie. 😆

Ag man as hulle te f@kken dom en astrant is om te probeer verstaan en allles hulle bedreig kan ek nie meer aanvaar dat daar iets soos gematigheid in godsdiens is nie. Ek glo ekstemeiste het n behoefte om dood te maak en daar sal altyd een of ander verskoning wees. Toe die Moslems se inval in die jaar 700 plus by Poitiers gestop is was daar nie eens koerante nie.

Goed gesê en ek stem weereens en dis ‘n feit soos ‘n koei. 😀

Hou die massas dom en beheer hulle.Wanneer ek die kommentaar oor godsdiens op sosiale netwerke lees,krimp ek ineen oor die onlogika daarvan,na alle kante..christen,moslem,jood,katoliek…meestal hatig op enigeen wat anders dink.Dis skrikwekkend!
Jan 09, 2015 @ 05:33:32
Ja en dit smeul…. vryheid van spraak word ‘toegelaat’ vryheid van denke nie. En tog loop die kerke leeg. Miskien word die massas in elk geval dommer by die dag, die denkendes word onder beheer gehou.

Yep, I agree, 100%. Take the piss out of it right left and centre.
If believers claim there religion is truth personified let them demonstrate it and defend it with integrity, honesty and facts.

Yes and I do wonder if religion is not an handy excuse for as colonialist call them rabid Islamic dogs.
