So I'm looking around at fan art related to Dan Brown's novels, and what do I find? @Silas Tunes.

If I do understand that some may do not find it fun and disagree or WTF, and I respect that aswell, I do not think that bothering admins with abuse on an image with an humoristic intend in the humoristic images thread is very appropriate. 

Mocking anyone's religious affiliation, beliefs, way of life, or the like is NEVER okay. You represent everything that is wrong with this world when you do.

I don't make fun of what you believe, don't make fun of what I do.

Right, ok. So that's cannon, still the rest of it was pretty terrible. The Emporer is not getting up for a Second Crusade or anything. Also, it would be the Third Crusade, the Second Crusade was the one that ended with the Horus Heresy. The First Crusade was what spread mankind out amongst the stars.

I'm going to go out on an extradimensional limb here and assume that watching the reactions over canon inaccuracies is the amusing part of the post.

I can relate to that in a sense, but the problem is that many people only consider this to be a valid argument when it comes to religion and not to other kinds of beliefs (e.g. general ideologies, political convictions, etc.). For instance, that emergency room comic strip a few posts above quite certainly mocks a specific stance people can take for ethical reasons. Should it be banned for that reason?

Personally, I try to avoid mocking religions in a public fashion, at least in a particularly rude and direct way, but it bothers me when people treat religion as far more sacrosanct (sorry for the pun) than other kinds of personal convictions.

I'd say that anything's a fair target for mockery, but that said mockery should always stay within certain civil levels and not become outright insulting. It's not the topic of mockery that should define whether it's acceptable, but the spirit in which it is delivered.

If it is, then the poster deserves an extra slap. I twitched at the first paragraph before I realized it was a parody, and then just grumbled excessively.

Freedom of expression/speech/whatever only applies to the ignorant majority who wouldn't dare speak anything contrary to "durrrr... iPhone... durrrr facebook. durrrrrrr. *sheep noises*" anyway.

Religion deserves to be mocked, just as much as anything else.

Disclaimer- I'm a baptised Christian, so I'm allowed to make fun.
