Draw Mohammed Day


Hello. I am Muhammad. And today is "Everybody Draw Muhammad Day."


Actually, today is "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day."


Who are you?


I am Mohammed.


Why are you spelling your name that way?


"M-O-H-A-M-M-E-D" is how my name is spelled.


No, I'm pretty sure it's spelled "M-U-H-A-M-M-A-D."


You are both wrong. My name is spelled "M-U-H-A-M-M-E-D."


Whoa! You look familiar. I used to look a lot like you. And who's that guy next to you?


He's Jesus.


He's like an infidel or something, isn't he?


Actually, he's a prophet.


Hold on a second. If he's a prophet, then why do we want to kill his followers?


Uh. Hmmm. Ah. Mmmm. Ummmm. I, uh... Help me out here, Jesus.


Actually, "Jesus" is a transliteration of my name in Greek. I was called "Yeshua," which is the same as "Joshua"...


This isn't "Learn About Jesus Day," it's "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day."


That's right. And if you draw me today, you better watch out. Someone might cut off your head or stick a flag pole in you.


Yeah, it's risky to mess with religious icons. Disrespect one of us, and you could be in trouble. Our followers are dangerous.


Not everybody's followers ...

    Yours was the first post I looked at this morning. I can't do that good.

    Kudos...
