Mohammed's Mother Wears Army Boots

This would be almost funny if it weren't so patently insane:

GAZA CITY (AP) -- Rage against caricatures of Islam's revered prophet poured out across the Muslim world on Saturday, with aggrieved believers calling for the execution of those involved, storming European buildings, and setting European flags afire.

I've said that some Christians are nuts, but you folks are really nuts. Nutty nuts, even.

Update: Looks like it isn't just wacky Muslims who are against secularism and free speech, asthe Vatican chimes in:

In its first official comments on the caricatures, the Vatican, while deploring violent protests, said certain forms of criticism represent an "unacceptable provocation."

"The right to freedom of thought and expression ... cannot entail the right to offend the religious sentiment of believers," the Vatican said in a statement.

*cough* Bullshit.

If that were the case, I'd be out of business in a hurry.
