Re: The Middle East and Western Asia riots- Your thoughts?

Well, imagine a culture built around a faith that disallows (well, more like not encourage) any form of visual art (sculptures, paintings, etc.) whether it be plant, animal and human. This means that the culture must either take inspiration from the environment, geometry, or from the very words of their faith itself (not saying that there aren't other options, personally I don't get Middle Eastern culture despite being a Muslim).

So now imagine a film, book, TV show, something-that's-not-insulting-but-people-twist-it's-meaning-to-be-insulting primering in the Middle East that insults their culture/religon. For them, it's a double-blow since their culture=religion link is so strong that insulting one is insulting the other. IMHO, that's how I view the recent protests.

Are you agreeing with me? My original point (which was off the cuff and not exactly worded the best) was that the local religion greatly informed the local culture so I didn't understand OP's suggestion that the riots were solely culturally influenced and had nothing to do with religion.

Wait.

*Reads OP's point. Then reads your point.*

Ooh...

Looks like I kinda misinterpreted your point and all. Sorry. ;(
