4. It was pertinent to the topic. But defamation for its own sake is stupid in any case.

It doesn't serve the nobility, and precious beauty, of free speech to use it simply to defame others just because you can do it. What are you trying to accomplish by striving to offend the world's Muslims? ALL of them, who will be offended when you slur their prophet? It doesn't matter that it's not your chosen religion. It's about some respect for others, who are showing the same to you. And yes, I have some Muslim neighbors who are great people and have never once made me feel like less of a person for not sharing their faith.

Just because I can smear my shit on the walls, doesn't mean it's a good idea to do so.
