Draw Muhammad Day

today, may 20, is draw muhammad day. let's see what watmm's talented mspainters can contribute to this celebration of free speech.

I don't wanna die.

You're not gonna die. We're gonna get outa here. SCOTTIE.

really? we don't need to provoke racism.

being afraid to draw a mythical character is pretty insane

racism? here, I'll start:

<--- this is the prophet muhammad rocking out to his new adam lambert cd his mom just bought him at wal marts.

Being determined to defend your mythical figure with your life is insaner.

I'm not going there.

i believe joyrex or a mod already closed one of these threads. Why? Muslims are serious business.

i am simply bewildered that they actually give a shit.

I'd draw him only I don't know what he looks like.

And I'm not arsed.

don't worry chassis, no one knows what he looks like...

i suspect that's the point -- you picture muhammad however you want. makes it more personal. paintings of jesus on the wall make everyone think of jesus as looking a certain way.

so, from a spiritual perspective, it makes sense. perhaps this is why it was written into islamic law... thousands of years later, people have lost the plot, and start going after cartoonists with axes.

Also I'm not big on belittling others believes, whether the go crazy over it or not.

people seem unaware it is possibly to draw muhammad nicely. you know, maybe create a positive relationship, rather than one based on death threats?

Sorry, i just meant there's no need to be drawing Muhammad as a "typical middle-eastern religious wack job".

feel free to ridicule. as long as it's not racist.
