    His treatment was unorthodox.

    I’m offended by people who feel obligated to tell you that they are offended. Nobody cares! The constitution gives you the right to be offended. Enjoy your freedom and shut up about it, already!

    If one subscribes to what is written in a “Holy” book, then one should be bound by it. If you believe what is written in another book, then you should follow that. If you have no leanings towards either, you aren’t governed by those words..Just be a good person. Anyway I thought it was Allah who was not to be depicted in any way.

    FINALLY somebody has the right idea. One of the things ruining this once-great country is that politicians pander to the complainers who appear offended by everything. And pass laws and regulations restricting the others.

    Oy, veh! (oder, Eu, Weh!) The Shiites have traditionally been more tolerant of images of Muhammad than the Sunnis. Today, there is little pattern. See the article “Depiction of Muhammad” on wikipedia for, of course, depictions of Muhammad, as well as homicidal reactions.

    I am a card-carrying MOTT (Member Of The Tribe) and after seeing this toon from Scott and reading all of the comments above, I carefully examined the toon’s content and did not find anything offensive to me. I also thought it was quite hilarious, indeed! Keep up the great work Scott!!

    Apparently, the NY Daily News found this offensive & did not run it in today’s edition!

    I’m wondering if it’s possible that those rabbis may be dyslexic? (You MUST have heard the dog/god jokes by now…) And while I’m at it, would the dogs name maybe be Sinai?

    So how do you get rid of rabbis? And why? The wagging tail indicates that the dog isn’t too bothered.

    So the rabbis are up to their old tricks on the dog this time, eh? Silly rabbis, tricks for kids.

    I am jewish, and not offended at all. People who are offended by something like this need to get a life. I emailed it to a bunch of friends.

    love gocomics: Of course. Everyone knows that education is for rich, white, Meisterraße types and we should go back to the Dark Ages when only the self-proclaimed elite had any rights.

    It shouldn’t happen to a dog, they say. Yet if his wagging tail is any indication, he looks pretty content. At peace, if you will.
