Draw Muhammed day

          Today is draw Muhammed day (down here in Australia anyway.)  so this blog entry will be about just that. At the bottom of this page there will be a few of my drawings.


          Most people who first here of draw Muhammed day consider it an anti Islamic thing. but this is just unexamined. Draw Muhammed day is a response to the censorship. To TV stations allowing all religious profits and icons to be shown and made fun on TV but the Islamic ones.


          This however is not limited to Islam. If the media refused to put images of Jesus up I'm sure we would be drawing him too.


          It is also a protest against religouse violence! It is a message To those that would harm, fight and kill over cartoons but it is also a message to those who allow them to do this! that if you threaten violence we will not listen! if you act like a bully we will not co-operate!


          This pic was drawn by me




          And this by a friend
