Undskyld MuhammedGlobalDanes clash on web in Prophet row
The controversy in Denmark over the reprinting of one of the 12 cartoons satirising the Prophet Muhammad this week has triggered an unusual dialogue on social networking group Facebook, writes the BBC's religious affairs correspondent Frances Harrison.
Anders says the debate in the media has been very black-and-white
The row began with Tuesday's arrests of three Muslims in Denmark said by the intelligence services to be plotting to kill one of the cartoonists.
All the major Danish newspapers next day rallied round their colleague, reprinting his drawing of the Prophet Muhammad with a bomb in his turban as a sign of solidarity.
But now young Danish student Anders Boetter says he has decided to start a Facebook site called Sorry Muhammad to apologise to Muslims on behalf of ordinary Danes and also give them a voice in the controversy over the row.
What does hurt my feelings is when a Danish newspaper publishes these very mocking cartoons of Muhammad
Anders Boetter
Sorry Muhammad
Anders says that in the last two years since the first printing of the cartoons, the media has built up a debate which is very black-and-white.
"Either you were for the Muhammad drawings or you were against it, but I believe there are many Danes who do not feel that way - they're somewhere in between and I am one of them," he explains.
"I am myself an atheist, but I do respect any kind of religion," he says, adding that the cartoons therefore do not offend him but he understands that it "hurts the feelings of Muslims a lot".
'Shockingly fast'
During the first cartoon crisis in 2006, Anders says he e-mailed his Muslim friends around the world to apologise.

UPDATE: "Undskyld Muhammed har formået at samle 1000 medlemmer på 24 timer!"
Man behøver ikke at nedgøre andres helligdomme for at understrege ytringsfrihedens ukrænkelighed.
”Undskyld Muhammed” er stiftet som reaktion på flere danske dagblades beslutning om at gentrykke tegninger af profeten Muhammed, som først udkom i Jyllands Posten i september 2005.
”Undskyld Muhammed” er et forsøg på at skabe en mere nuanceret debat omkring ytringsfriheden og for at sige undskyld til muslimer i hele verden.
”Undskyld Muhammed” anerkender og støtter ytringsfrihedens fundamentale rolle i et demokratisk samfund og vigtigheden i at borgere frit kan udtrykke meningsforskelle uden frygt for repressalier. Derfor fordømmer ”Undskyld Muhammed” ethvert forsøgt på at skade eller dræbe andre mennesker på grund af uenighed med deres handlinger eller personlige overbevisninger.
Samtidigt stiller ”Undskyld Muhammed” sig kritisk over for trykningen af et billede af profeten med en bombe i turbanen. Dette billede har tidligere vagt stort opstandelse og modstand i store dele af den muslimske verden og kan alt for let opfattes som krænkende og nedladende over for muslimer.
”Undskyld Muhammed” mener at man skal værne om ytringsfriheden og dens anvendelse. Den skal ikke bruges som fribillet eller blot som dække for handlinger som fremmedgør, skaber fjendtlighed og fjerner forudsætningerne for konstruktiv debat.
”Undskyld Muhammed” spørger, med hvilket formål valgte man at trykke, endnu en gang, så provokerende et billede af profeten? Det er en handling som potentielt kan have store følger for Danmarks omdømme, danske handelsinteresser og danskere som bor og arbejder i udlandet.
”Undskyld Muhammed” fungerer, som et samlingssted for de, som ikke kan genkende sig selv som danskere, ud fra det billede der tegnes i den trykte dagspresse og er dominerende på tv mediernes sendeflader.
Var det nødvendigt at gentrykke disse billede? Skaber de ikke større splid end mulighed for dialog og en saglig diskussion af ytringsfriheden og dens grænser?
”Undskyld Muhammed” opfordrer danske medier og borgere til at anvende deres ytringsfrihed med omhu og omtanke for dets konsekvenser. Ytringsfriheden er en speciel ret som skal udøves med ansvarsfølelse og modenhed; den skal ikke misbruges.
Det er gruppens erklærede mål at samle 10.000 medlemmer på 14 dage.
På Undskyld Muhammed gruppens vegne,
Anders Bøtter

UPDATE: "Undskyld Muhammed" ("Sorry Muhammed") has been joined by 1000 members in 24 hours!
One does not need to denigrate that which is holy to others, in order to emphasise the sanctity of the freedom of speech.
“Sorry Muhammed” was founded as a reaction to several Danish newspapers’ decision to reprint pictures depicting the prophet Muhammed, which were first published in Jyllands Posten in September 2005.
”Sorry Muhammed” is an attempt to create a more nuanced debate about the freedom of speech and to apologize to those Muslims who feel offended and affronted throughout the world.
“Sorry Muhammed” acknowledges and strongly supports the fundamental role played by the freedom of speech in a democratic society and the importance of citizens being able to freely express their differences of opinion without fear of reprisals. Consequently, “Sorry Muhammed” strongly condemns any attempt to harm or kill another person due to disagreement over a particular action or conviction.
At the same time, “Sorry Muhammed” critically questions the necessity of printing a picture of the prophet Muhammed, with a bomb in his turban. This picture has previously proved highly inflammatory in large parts of the Muslim world and can too easily be construed as denigrating and demeaning towards Muslims.
”Sorry Muhammed” asks, what was the purpose of choosing to print, once more, such a provocative picture of the prophet? This is an action that can have great ramifications for Denmark’s reputation, her trade interests as well as Danes living and working abroad.
Was it necessary to reprint these pictures? Do they not have a more divisive effect, rather than creating the conditions for dialogue and a sober discussion of the relationship between freedom of speech and its limits?
“Sorry Muhammed” believes that we should safeguard the freedom of speech and its application. It should not be used as a free-ticket or a poor excuse for actions that alienate, create hostility and removes the conditions required to engage in constructive debate.
“Sorry Muhammed” encourages Danish media and citizens to use their freedom of expression in a thoughtful and considerate manner. Freedom of speech is a special right, which should be exercised responsibly, in a sober and mature fashion; it should not be abused.
On behalf of the "Undskyld Muhammed" group,
Anders Bøtter

أهم نقطة لإلتقائنا أنا وأنت هي المسيح ..
هل قال المسيح عن نفسه أنه هو الله ؟
هل قال أنا الأقنوم الثاني ؟
هل قال أنا ناسوت ولاهوت؟
هل قال أن الله ثالوث ؟
هل قال أن الله أقانيم ؟
هل قال أن الروح القدس إله ؟
هل قال أعبدوني فأنا الله ولا إله غيري ؟
هل قال أني سأصلب لأخلص البشرية من الذنوب والخطايا؟
هل ذكر خطيئة آدم المزعومة مرة واحدة ؟
