Strider: The islamic religion strictly prohibits any drawings to be made of Mohammed, since it's believed that God created him and you shouldn't try to imitate God.
Yeah, but so what? The people who drew and published the pictures obviously
weren't Muslims, and nor are most of the people for whom the images are being reproduced. I thought these people were fed up with having other peoples' opinions pressed onto them? Rather hypocritical.
Saco: The name Muhammed is transliterated to Muhammed, Mohammed, Mohammad and even Mahomet. I daresay I'm right whichever I use, since they refer to the same person. In swedish, it's Muhammed aswell, I thought the correct english term was with an o.
Transliterations can be done any way you like, in my opinion. None of them are right, because they're all in the wrong alphabet. Just try to make it look like it sounds in the accent of the people reading. I've often seen "Moslem" in place of "Muslim".
Another argument caused by religion. Terrrrrific.
For your information, I detest all religions pretty equally.
