A belief, religion, or dogma that responds to criticism or to humorous satire with bloodshed and violence does not attempt to compete fairly in the open marketplace of ideas. Such ideas, beliefs, dogmas, and religions must be shunned by all rational and thinking people if the world is to ever know peace. If your beliefs are true, then convince me with thought and with rational argument. And, if they are true, you have nothing to fear from open discussion and criticism, for the truth will eventually win the day. It is only if your beliefs are false that you need to fear open and frank discussion (and even irreverent satire), and to oppose such free expressions of thought with violence.
