As I enjoy breathing and proper blood circulation, I take no stance in either direction on this matter.

Director Avoids Islamic Icon in ‘2012′ Movie

In movies, American landmarks, Christian symbols, and even Buddhist temples are fair game for outright destruction.  However, don’t even hint that an Islamic symbol might be involved, or someone might get pissed.

So – is it wrong that we aren’t as willing to defend our own religions and views?  Or is it wrong that they defend theirs?  Or, and this is my favorite, is it wrong that we feel it’s ok to destroy (figuratively speaking, of course) our own buildings and symbols as often and however we like but we are willing to give other religions “a pass”?

Cinematical has a good discussion going regarding this, as well.
