What I meant is that no one should feel personally offended by a cartoon mocking their religion.
Why not? If there's a right to offend then surely there must also be a right to be offended. Which is, needless to say, completely different from a right to firebomb offices and/or gun down people at an editorial meeting.
I can't control other people's feelings, obviously. The point was that I strongly dislike the ideological ramifications of such feeling.
Such feeling is a natural outflow of feeling personally attached to one's religion, rather than just giving it some sort of dry intellectual assent.
