Re: #JeSuisLeRameau @theodore
There's a difference because there are a huge number of people that find the depiction of Mohammed offensive but there's no significant group that considers the depiction of Jesus offensive. So if you make any evaluation of potential offence then the outcome will differ.
Thought of a really funny joke but are sensitive to people's feelings? The joke will probably have to be funnier if it's about Mohammed to make the one consideration outweigh the other.
Just aiming to offend? Then don't bother with Jesus.
Would prefer above all else not to offend? Then stick with Jesus.
However there's absolutely no difference in my mind as to the protection that each cartoon should be given. Both should be equally protected in a secular state.
