Fatwa Regarding Cartoons
As Caliph of International Mu'tazilah I hereby issue the following decree:
Every human on this planet has freedom of thought and freedom of speech. Progress in society is made by people exercising those freedoms. Controversial cartoons was an ideal time to prove to the world how open-minded and tolerant Muslims are. Most sects totally blew it, instead showing the world how petty, close-minded and intolerant they are. They were an embarassment to the good sects such as Mu'tazilah. I look forward to the day when mainstream Muslims are as tolerant as mainstream Christians. I wonder what timeframe we can expect that in? Depends on how successful the Mu'tazilah sect can become I guess. Fingers crossed.
