#1 Freedom to blaspheme is the price to be paid for not living under a theocracy.

In a theocracy there's a total ban on blasphemy against one specific religious doctrine. Blasphemy against other doctrines and other religions however is not only permitted but rather mandatory.

#2 Personally, I don't think Charlie Hebdo is funny. Now, nuking Mecca or Qom...

#6 Sometimes I think a glass lake over the site of the former Mecca or Qoms would be a real knee slapper...other times, I think we should just build a high wall and feed them weapons and ammunition and let natural selection winnow them out...
