We wouldn't have got anywhere as a society if we were never allowed offend religious feelings and orthodoxy. I don't think there is merit in offense for the sake of offending, but sometimes you have to say things that are true, necessary or rational that will offend people who are religious. Religion have traditionally been one of the most oppressive tools in history and still is in parts of the world, so if we can't say what we think about religion here in Europe then where else can or should we?as opposed to religious institutions pissing off millions of people by covering up and condoning child abuse among many other things
satire (even in the form of cartoons) is a reasonable, non violent demonstration of opposition to such things
dont satarize things you disagree with as it will upset people is a poor poor argument.
you have to talk about things you disagree with and not on the terms of the people you disagree with.
If you allow the people you disagree with to set the terms, you never change society.
