In light of what's going on in Paris now...

"I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it" -- Voltaire


--

I agree with the saying that, "you are free to choose, but you are not free from the consequence of your choice;" which draws parallel to the situation where "you are free to speak, but you are not free from the consequence of your speech." 

If you are drawing things that ridicule other people's faith, be prepared for reactions from people who don't share your sense of humor. I agree that you guys are brave. I agree that you guys stood and sacrificed for what you believe. 

But so did those that killed you. 

Refute me, spite me; but I really don't know whose beliefs, in this case, are wrong. Heck, I don't even think there's a right and wrong to a person's faith. But there's something, something that's definitely wrong with this whole chain of argument: ... "killed" 

Are those bad humor justified to have their life taken away from them? Yea, God's will. 

"How weak is a God if it requires its followers to kill for Him"
