In my religion, we have been reminded to respect each other. Not only should we respect our parents, or the elderly, but we should also respect others with different faith and religion. We were reminded a few times not to ridicule other religion as their believers could do the same to us. Let whatever their religion be theirs, and our religion be ours.
Unfortunately there will always be people who prefer to make fun of other people and play with sensitive issues without thinking of the consequences of their words and actions.
So recently the world was shocked by the massacre in paris on cartoonists. It all started from these cartoonists ridiculing Islam. Yes, nothing can justify the massacre, but no one should ridicule another religion in the first place. If only everyone is more tolerant and sensitive towards other people's belief, surely there will be more peace than violence in this world. One can just hope.
