How hard can it be? Simply avoid mockery of any religion

[Nye Bevan]

whose adherents have a tendency to murder people and explode bombs in retaliation for perceived mockery of their beliefs. Obviously it would be insane to produce a Broadway show that subjected such a religion to extreme ridicule, so the producers of "The Book of Mormon" sensibly chose a safe religion to skewer. And if you want to dunk a venerated religious icon in piss, a crucifix is an obvious, safe choice. Or if for the sake of art you want to cover an image of a revered religious figure with elephant shit, choosing the Virgin Mary is not going to get you murdered. Isn't all this just simple common sense?

And which is why they get mocked, deservedly.

She should have called her movement a religion. Then nobody would have dared to criticize her.
