@Sakshi – lol (aishoo! I’ll get thrown out for saying the unsayable )

@Snehalbhai – My question, after all the 3 page ranting there is this – why are you offended?
I truly believe you really believe and have faith in the Gods depicted there. Why are you offended?
This is too tiny to be offended about. – well thats my view though.
And no, I wasnt criticising you – I was asking you this question -”how does it really affect you? why are you offended?”
My long winded oratory seems to have missed this tiny point up there

I’ve said my objection is on cultural and intellectual grounds, not religious.

Yes Hindus gods did it (supposedly not Hanuman but most others) just as did Moses, and Abraham, and David, etc. I have the freedom to show Abraham banging Sarah, but I’d be smart enough to expect angry letters. That’s all. If, for some stupid reason, I did draw Abraham and Sarah getting it on, and someone pointed out to me, that’s kind of f–cked up, I’d say, “Oops, my bad.” Stuff didn’t have the decency to do that much.

The mag has the freedom to print whatever. We have the freedom to criticize it, just as you have the freedom to criticize me.
