more rants

...at least I'm not saying that I'm satisfied by feeling that way towards Muslims. The more of them I meet, the better I understand them. Tom has made me undestand a whole lot more, he is one of the kindest persons that I know. And I'll continue to change my view of things along the way, I just need time and opportunity.

I don't want Norway to turn into an arrogant nation who don't care about the values and views of others, but I do agree with our prime minister. He sais that as long as the government is the most important protector of the freedom of speech, it would be completely wrong for the government to issue an official apology for what has happened. It does NOT mean that we agree with the view of those that printed the drawings!

I must say, that it hurts me more to see my flag burned, I haven't done anything. What the militant groups in Gaza and other Middle-eastern countries are doing now, is exactly the same as was done when those drawings were published.. They make all Danish and Norwegian people angry at all Muslims by burning our flags, when really it is only the millitant groups that are behind the burning...

And I'm upset with the editor of the Christian newspaper here in Norway who printed those drawings, because when asked, he said that he would never print such drawings of Jesus. That means that he thinks he is better than others. I mean that we have to show respect to earn respect.

I dunno why this matter has upset me so much...

I guess the moment that we see ourselves as perfect is the moment that we've gone astray.
