I think you are confusing with some one else. I never posted anything like that. When you condemn blasphemy against Islam, you should apply the same rules to other relegions whether you like it or not.
Re: MF Husain conferred Qatar nationality
Is there a specific injunction against portraying Gods or Goddesses in the nude in the Hidu religion?
Is there such an injunction in Indian law that proscribes it?
If India is what it claims to be, then why should this artist censor himself? Its a free country, thats secular. India cant claim to be one thing, and practice something completely different.
And why must this Artist be a Muslim first? People seem to attack him and make assumptions simply because he is Muslim! Indians are constantly touting the notion that all Indians regardless of their religious affiliation are "Indian first," yet certain Indians on this forum have automatically turned him into a Muslim first. And fanatic at that!
How pathetic. This is what I was talking about. The artist has said that his paintings were intended to represent Mother India in a respectful light. As something to cherish. Its symbolic. Its an image that belongs to all Indians. Yet Indians have turned on him, taking an image meant to unify all Indians regardless of religion, and decided to turn it into an insult and a reason to expell him. In the process exposing the bias Indians have against Muslims.

\i can agree with you on many of your statements......but i do not think that you will say the same for sulman rushdie....
a little correction...the indian law does not allow anyone to disrespect the religious feelings of any community...
and frankly...your information about fm is very little...some pathetic indians on this borad have termed him as muslim first.....do you know how many hindus have openly opposed the fanatics against him in india...
So is that how you show respect to women in your culture ? But depicting them nude ???
Re: MF Husain conferred Qatar nationality
logon ko bari jaldi 'respect' ki yaad aa gayee.... kahan gayee 'freedom of expression'?
Re: MF Husain conferred Qatar nationality
I dont consider the obscene depiction of religious figures/symbols as "art". Will Mr. Hussain be bold enough to depict symbols of Islam in the same manner in the guise of "freedom of expression" ? No, because a "fatwa" would be issued if he even dared to visually depict the Prophet.
That said, attacking him or death threats against him should be condemned in the strongest words possible.

LMAO! Yet The Holy Prophet with a bomb for a hat was acceptible to you hey Matsui?

No, freedom of expression cannot be used to justify insulting a religion. That said, there is a difference between an obscene depiction and a cartoon inspired by current events.

This is how people create justifications for their wrongdoings.
:k:
Wrongdoings ? There is enough justification to question whether Islam teaches peace or violence. The cartoonist was just trying to depict that.
MF Hussain on the other hand was mis-using his “freedom” of expression. Big difference !!

Looks like you cannot debate without name calling. Is this a birth disorder or a newly acquired disease ?
Re: MF Husain conferred Qatar nationality
Nah I call it as I see it. When the shoe is on the other foot, you make excuses.
Re: MF Husain conferred Qatar nationality
this sob hussein is gone right? good riddance.
Re: MF Husain conferred Qatar nationality
I dont think a Hindu painter in India would ever make a painting insulting Islam and call it "freedom of expression". Thats the secular nature of the country - respect for all religions.
MFH did it not once, but multiple times. Who said that to be an artist, one has to let go of intelligence and sound judgement ?

I said SOME Indians...
And why should Hindus be offended? They are the same people who created the Kama Sutra. They have temples dedicated to tantric sex in the South.
God made them Nude… Go complain to him/her.
