Go do a search at www.npr.org. That's usually the first radio station I
tune to in the car. Next would be our local right-wing Clear Channel

The original cartoons were published Sept.30 in Jyllands-Posten. I'm
not
sure, but I don't believe it's a "Christian" newspaper. The following
link has the paper's rationale for the cartoons.

Interesting debate, freedom of speech vs. religious sensibilities. To
place it closer to home, to those in the freedom of speech camp, did you
also support Serrano's freedom to display his **** Christ?

Hadn't seen it. But, there might be a difference. Muslims believe it's a
bad
thing to portray their god in any way at all. Christians don't have such
issues with the mere existence of images of JC. The *nature* of an image
of
JC is another issue entirely.

but equaly offensive wouldn't you say?

Yep, perhaps more so. Yet we don't see Catholics and Christians taking to
the streets with guns and sabers threatening to cut off the heads of the
"infidels".
