what makes you say that?.....if you don't even have the basic knowledge about a religion then how can you comment on it?......you don;t even know who was Muhammed(SAW) than how could you say like this.....leave Islam aside....look at Sikhism..do you know who Guru Nanak Dev was if you don;t then how could you?

You seem to be struggling with the word Liberal. The liberal approach would be to allow anyone to draw what they like as that impinges on personal freedom the least.

Wrong. The religion of peas is getting some turd thrown back at it and the weak lefties can't have anyones feelings hurt so they bleat and whine.

I think you'll find that in this country we have every right to say whatever we want about anyone's beliefs and faiths, it's the "guarantee of freedom of expression". Perhaps you are referring to the "incitement to religious hatred" limitation? The relevant section being:

A person who uses threatening words or behaviour, or displays any written material which is threatening, is guilty of an offence if he intends thereby to stir up religious hatred.

We have every right to say want we want - as long as the above is recognised. Drawing cartons of Mohammed isn't 'threatening', thereby fine in my opinion.

Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Sikhism, Judaism etc are all the same crowd control mechanisms to me. Look at the time and place of all these religion's most popular times and you will see poor, downtrodden people working for a local lord that represents a God and promises a better life when they die. "Just serve me in poverty instead of revolting, and I'll have a word with the big feller(s) upstairs when you die".
I find Jainism and Taoism particularly noteworthy as they are religions that teach you to be a better person just for the sake of being a better person. Sounds more honest to me. :D

A little about Buddhism - since you know literally nothing of it:

1. "crowd control mechanisms"
False - Buddhism is a personal choice and you are not bound to it, leaving buddhism is simply to not practice.

2. "poor, downtrodden people working for a local lord that represents a God and promises a better life when they die"
False - Buddha claimed himself he was no God, but that every human had the capacity to achieve the 'higher state' that he had achieved.
