    Doesn’t make sense to me that religious people get violent because of something you say or draw.

    If it would be wrong god will punish people who do it. If god doesn’t it is not wrong. And if god doesn’t but religious people do, that is them acting against god and thinking they know better then god. That is blasphemy and will make their god hate them.

      The whole point is just a way of not revering the prophet as a god or idol. Like Catholic saints are borderline in their focus on the religiosity of that person but the church chose to ignore it because it was popular and helped them spread their religion.

      But the implication is that it only matters for people who are already Muslim. It doesn’t make a difference what outsiders do.

      It’s religion, it doesn’t need to be logical. Au contraire.

        People can behave in a way that makes sense to an outside observer without actually making any fucking lick of sense themselves.
