This is pure gold !!

**Peadar** · 16/02/2006, 9:31 AM

That is seriously unfunny.
I'm not taking the moral high ground here, it's just not funny!

Just a stupid variation of the Carlsberg don't do shíte but if they did, it would be the best shíte, thing with one of the cartoons published in the Danish press recently.

Pretty poor really....not in very good taste.

**CollegeTillIDie** · 16/02/2006, 10:09 AM

Well yes but this where the Danish Cartoon fell down
Not particularly funny.

1)Ayatollah Khomeini with a cartoon bomb for head attire ... funny
2)Osama Bin Laden ditto

3)Mohammed... gratuitously offensive!

1 & 2 make the point more effectively too!

Human figures are fair game.... deities or their prophets... offensive!

dont take life too seriously lads. cartoons with images of jesus, god etc have been doing the rounds for years but because it is mohammed we have to view it differently because of the fundamentalist followers? i dont think so! remember the hammerite ad with jesus being stuck to the cross, with the caption of "no more nails" under the image? where was the public outcry then?
besides, what about the freedom of speech aspect? it's a joke, see it as such, even laugh if you want to, but dont pretend to be offended just because some muslims dont understand western humour.

indeed and paddy power knew this before they brought it out, they knew they would get more publicity by having to take down the ad then leaving it up, PC gone wrong is the saying that comes to mind.

but i don't think much for the carlsberg ad myself and as i said if it was a normal member of this board they would prob be banned.

well we should thank God that we don't live in a max power ruled society so.

**max power** · 16/02/2006, 2:40 PM

come on, your telling me "certain" members dont get special treatment around here.......

**A face** · 16/02/2006, 2:42 PM

I couldn't give a toss if it stays or not, i actually find it funny and said i'd share it to see if others find it funny. If the majority dont like it then i'll sling it .... no worries ... What'll do ??

**Anto McC** · 16/02/2006, 3:46 PM

i think its hillarious myself

mohammed is a human , a prophet is a human sent by god , the musilims belive jesus was also a prophet , they dont belive he is the son of god as christians do but that he is a very important prophet .

i didnt find it funny not because it is offensive but because that carlsberg thing has been done to death .

this is the last funny carlsberg dont do... one ive seen click the link and scroll down to number 163 http://www.bluekipper.com/blue_blubb...e_blubber5.htm

**paul_oshea** · 16/02/2006, 4:21 PM

lads wont get into it too much here, but islam is the most hypocritical religion of all.

just one thing i would like to say however, jordanian newspapers ( one of the most moderate islamic countries btw ) has been printing pictures of jews, benjamin nethanyahu etc etc, and hacidic slander for years, yet when its on the other foot....and dont give me the "living" person is fine, but not an "iconic" figure.

**jorge** · 16/02/2006, 7:26 PM

I found it very funny actually.

moaners

**anto eile** · 16/02/2006, 7:29 PM

its mildly amusing. but the fact it might be insulting against a religion (could be christianity for all i care) makes it even more funny.
i dont see why insulting religion should be a "no no".
all religion is bull
most muslims are highly strung loonies and deserve to have the complete pi$$ ripped out of them.
99% of muslim countries are sh!t. i would hate to live in saudi arabia, egypt, jordan etc
so what if its offensive? just because something is offensive doesnt mean its not true
ALLAH hu AKBAR!!!!!
