I think what he felt was betrayal and a sense of being lied to. If he had
known going in that it was mockery, his reaction IMO would have been different.
I really don't care about someone's paticular beliefs when I view their MOC,
unless their MOC is a commentary *about* *my* beliefs (and especially *not*
about theirs)-- I think that is a different scenario.
Interestingly, if BPS should decide to recreate stories in the Koran, he could
well find himself *actually* condemned to death by some Muslim leaders! Better
he should stick to the easy target of check-turning Christians....
