I do not wrong anyone for their beliefs, nor do I force my beliefs on anyone either, but why can we not just live in peace with each other...?

World Zoo News…


            


I don’t keep track,


Of local news,


Let alone worldwide stuff,


But of the cartoons of Muhammad,


I find I want to say to take it light,
Everyone is entitled to their views,


Why go all ape shit over this and make life rough…?


 


The Christian God has received more than one caricature,


In the thousand of years he/she has “ruled” the heavens,


I fail to recall if anyone got so upset other than the “moral majority,“


If ya can’t take a joke, then bomb and kill,


As, it seems, some of Islams followers are into doing anyway…


 


I really wonder sometimes, did Muhammad say to anyone to kill,


To put others to death because they do not worship him,


Are we infidels as we are sometimes called,


Of this particular and most specific news,


I have found I have had my complete and total fill…
