Hurting Religious sentiments

Guess you must have all read that the muslim world is angrily
reacting to cartoons of Prophet Mohammed carrying a bomb in his
turban. I believe the European papers took it a little too far by
again printing the cartoons again.

Recently I saw posts containing images of
M.F.Hussain's paintings of Hindu gods and Goddesses having SEX!!!

The RSS in India reacted angrily too and probably closed down the art
show or something like that.

But my point is that this is now where compared to what the muslim
world is doing.
Why?

Do people in India uphold the freedom of expression so much?
OR
Is it the vote base that talks?
OR
Do we just not care?

I beleive there was no public apology from M.F.Hussien himself. He is
free to do what ever he wants. How do the muslim world react if this
were done to them. Put a fatwah like they did on Salman Rushdie!!!

I definitely want to listen to M.F.Hussien's thoughts on the cartoons!!!

Your thoughts???
