My magic formula is trying to think of a rough translation of the sentences in Dutch and then try to compare. :D

Who is "he" ? It's not as if they targeted only 1 guy ...
And in my opinion you can't say "there is freedom of speech but they crossed the line". Either there is, or there isn't freedom of speech
As much as I love freedom of speech, I do not think anything can be said. However, I do feel that this isn't crossing the line. This was done by a satirical magazine which had a 'fuck all' attitude. Freedom of speech is a great right, but if you start to effectively damage others by saying, or portraying certain things you are able of crossing a 'line'. It's just a major fucking grey area in my eyes.

every one is talking about the islamist guys that killed the 12..what about the terroist and the reason for this fucking terror? thoose christians who wrote shit about islam and mohammad?
i'm christian , just trying to show that in both sides there are terror..there are shit muslims , therre are shit christians :)
As far as I know, it had nothing to do with them being christians(I even doubt that's a case, for all of them at least), just them portraying a certain spiritual figure in Islam to which they took offense to. It being forbidden in Islam to portray Mohammed. Them portraying him in a satirical manner is what fully triggered it.

Just to clarify, I do not think the terrorists, henceforth going to be called douchebags, had any justified motive for it. There was a theory going on here, by a terrorism expert that it was mostly an act of Al Qaeda to get 'back in the picture' again, with IS stealing their thunder lately. They just chose a victim, but could've been anything really. If that was indeed the case, it definitely worked.

You came from catholic to atheist? wow have no more comment.
I've been raised as a catholic myself, but have always been told to be open minded and choose what I believed in, rather than believing what my parents did. I chose to explore several religions and cultures and found out that it all seems ridiculous to me. Especially as most of the religions are all based on the same things.

I would damn tell him that he would be a public objective where everyone would laugh at him and where would he go in job career and so on, hey guys now you accusing me of what I belief. It sucks how people overreact to other opinions. That's how religion wars starts.
It's not wrong to be homosexual, it's wrong to laugh at or bully someone for being homosexual. And yes, I take offense to what you say about homosexuals, as various friends and acquaintances of mine are homosexual. I won't think of you less of a person, just small minded as fuck. I wouldn't mind you thinking it not being okay, but don't limit others in their lifestyles because you think it's wrong.

That's not strictly true in all cases. People are often born into very religious families, raised within that religion. They know nothing else. How can they choose when that religion is the only thing in the world that they know?
You're right, but I was mostly talking about being able to choose your religion in our current western society, which is a choice. With the exception of a few cults scattered around the globe. Nowadays, in most of  the developed western countries you get so much information about various religions, cultures and lifestyles that it's basically a choice. I would've fully agreed with you if we were talking about 60 years ago.

I believe the Greeks used to say (way back when, you know) "Women for the business, men for the pleasure" or something like that.
While I don't know if that's strictly true, I do believe there was a time in history when it was OK to have a younger man as a "companion" for another man.

So in that sense, there's been better times for other sexual orientations.
You are correct. I think it was most prominently accepted during the Roman empire, if I recall correctly Emperor Nero even married a man.

Maybe I said too harsh about burning them, it was just a saying, didn't really meant it.

You know what gay people damage? Our generation, yes, you may think about your kids, think about you having a boy and becoming homosexual, would you like that? Would you like your boy to take example from some kind creepy dude? I worry more about generation, about my kids, what I will say to them, I would never want my kids to be like these shit holes. Now more gay people getting involved in the festivals, concerts and so on, soon we will see gay people in politics who control our countries, woohoo. That's what i mean. I am not a terrorist, but I would be at some point pissed if someone was saying bad about my religion and in what I believe. I take my words back since I do like British army and who knows where I go in the future, maybe I go to war, I might be killing innocent people, but that's how life goes, media does the most part.
Here's a list which might make you want to kill yourself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_first_LGBT_holders_of_political_offices

Furthermore, it wouldn't make a single fucking difference if a possible offspring of mine would be either gay, straight, transgender, or whatever the fuck the child would identify with. As long as the kid's happy, that's the most important, isn't it? But do you know how those little kids, who might be homosexual stay unhappy? Because ignorant little fucks like you, who try to make them feel bad for something they can not do anything about. It's something they can't choose, what people can choose is what religion they believe in. You can choose to accept homosexuals, as they have been a part of society since fucking eternity. Something that your religion hasn't been.

I'll be realistic here, I don't think homosexuality, transgender or any of that stuff is 'right'. Not by nature's standards. Something caused that. I don't know if there's more gays/trans because they're speaking up more or if something in the environment is causing it. That's something that should be looked into.

The issue is, you're bashing a person for something they have no control over. Should you be burned because of your hair color? Should you be burned because you have a toe that's slightly crooked? That's what's wrong.

Religion tends to bring out extreme ideals because people take it as fact rather than a belief system.
Homosexuality and such are more globally accepted than let's say, 20 years ago. That's making it easier for the 'closet-case' people to come out as a homosexual I think. The digital age, social media, most prominently Tumblr I believe are showing a lot of young people that it's not wrong to be gay. Also the decline of religious people everywhere is giving it a push, as a lot of the hatred towards gay people, and other sexually orientated people comes from various religious rather than people their own right thinking mind.

Man you're hardcore ... I could defend abortion and gay's for ever but this ain't the topic. Spanky was just saying, not only Muslims do bad things, but the media decided what to focus on and what not.

And yes Archec, apparently the numbers are right, surprising indeed
I might be wrong, but don't you live in Brussels? That would explain your idea of the amount of muslims being higher in Belgium than that it actually is. I often go to Bruges, as my girlfriend lives there and frequently visit other Belgian cities a long the way. Brussels and Antwerp really have a high concentration of immigrants, compared to cities as Ghent and Bruges. Also try to bear in mind that spread throughout the country, and especially the tinier towns and cities there will be less immigrants. People of one ethnic group tend to live in a same area to preserve a part of their own culture in the city/country they moved to. Most notably the various Chinatowns all over the world.

I hate gay or homosexual people not because of my religion, I just do because it's not right. The question is simple, why is there a women for? Men and Women must be together not men with men, you get my point? Homosexual is some kind of weird people community who think it is right, but it is not. They do not deserve place on earth and they should be burned. I do believe in my religion but doing something terrorising is not right and I would never do anything to hurt another human being who is innocent. By the way I do not support abortion because of my religion, that's right and I don't think it's right for women to do abortion, it can affect her future pregnancy and there could be serious causes doing this abortion stuff, like no children in the future and so on, if you want a child you plan it out.
You just opened a huge shithole for yourself.

Homosexuality is human. It even used to be much more accepted at certain points in history, than it is nowadays. The thing about your post that troubles me, is that you are under the impression that they should be burned. A person is born as a homosexual, or the person is not. Some might discover it later on in their lives, and some know it since their early days. But why should they be burned? How does it trouble you, that some random dude fucks another dude, in stead of a woman, how does that influence you. Does it damage you in any some sort of way? The world nowadays is extremely intolerant, why can't you let someone live their lives the way they want it, as long as it doesn't significantly hurt anybody else?

Taking another Fiat will result in only more trouble. I'd suggest one of the tinier German cars, VW &Opel/Vauxhall.
