I've never met a Catholic who was offended by remarks about priests or the Pope. I'm not saying they don't exist, but they don't seem to be very common.

I don't know who these "progressives" and "left wingers" and "Democrat party regulars in the US" are who you think "want to shut down the speech" of Floridian nuts and Danish cartoonists, and mostly think you are full of shit. If you want to talk about any one such wanna-be speech-shut-downer, let's all condemn him or her together, but of course what you really are up to is a cheap shot at "progressives" and "left wingers" and "Democrat party regulars in the US."
