Mark Steyn in honour of this fine Day reruns his polemic on those Danish Cartoons, which gets off to a momentous start:

As Pericles told the war-battered Athenians, “To a man of spirit, cowardice and disaster coming together are far more bitter than death striking him unperceived at a time when he is full of courage and animated by the general hope.”

Yes, I know. Bit of a downer for an opening number, but that’s the way I feel. I am by nature a happy warrior, but in this last month I’ve seen way too much cowardice and disaster coming together...

And in case you want a top up of free media sharing with us yet more outlandish, morally doubtful and surely blasphemous drawings of the two greatest religious leaders of all time - in bed together - check out Jesus and Mo.

Give yourself plenty of time to scroll back through these cartoons, not least to see their deep philosophical musings over a couple of beers with ... the barmaid.

So you see, these days we are Free.

Religion - including Islam - can be mocked and derided.

It's just, well ... safer to do it on an Equal Opportunities basis.
