Con Jesucristo hay que ser más exigente

No es la primera vez que el diario danés ha tenido entre manos unos dibujos de un símbolo religioso. Pero su respuesta en una ocasión anterior fue muy diferente.

En abril de 2003 un ilustrador danés envió unas caricaturas de Jesucristo relacionadas con la resurrección al Jyllands-Posten. El diario se negó a publicarlas porque podían ser ofensivas para algunos lectores y además no eran muy divertidas.

El email que recibió el ilustrador fue:

"I don't think Jyllands-Posten's readers will enjoy the drawings. As a matter of fact, I think that they will provoke an outcry. Therefore, I will not use them."

Como era de prever que las actuales caricaturas de Mahoma iban a provocar también un cierto malestar, cuando no algo peor, habrá que deducir que al menos las consideraban muy divertidas.

para entender algunas diferencias:

from Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piss_Christ):

"Piss Christ is a controversial photograph by American photographer Andres Serrano. It depicts a small plastic crucifix submerged in a glass of the artist's urine. Some have suggested that the glass may also contain the artist's blood. The piece was underwritten by the National Endowment for the Arts, which offers support and funding for projects that exhibit artistic excellence.

The piece caused a scandal when it was exhibited in 1987, with detractors accusing Serrano of blasphemy and others raising this as a major issue of artistic freedom. On the floor of the United States Senate, Senators Al D'Amato and Jesse Helms expressed outrage that the piece was supported by the National Endowment for the Arts, since it is a federal taxpayer-financed institute.

Serrano produced other similar works to much less controversy; Madonna and Child II (1989), for example, in which the subject is similarly submerged in urine, is not nearly so well known as "Piss Christ".

Piss Christ is often used as a test-case for the idea of freedom of speech, and was described in the journal Arts & Opinion as "a clash between the interests of artists in freedom of expression on the one hand, and the hurt such works may cause to a section of the community on the other."

Segun he leido en escolar, Iñigo, estas se las envio un dibujante por su cuenta, mientras que las de Muhhamad las pidieron ellos explicitamente.

Aunque queda claro de que va todo esto.
