       What caught my attention, and prompted me to post before heading out the door this morning, was the following...

      The UN session is designed to endorse a meeting of religious leaders in Spain last summer that was the brainchild of King Abdullah and organized by the Muslim World League. That meeting resulted in a final statement counseling promotion of "respect for religions, their places of worship, and their symbols ... therefore preventing the derision of what people consider sacred."
 
       Funny that it should be met with wonderful examples of how much we take our right to mock for granted.

      Freedom of expression, or allowing religious institutions to dictate how they shall be discussed?
