Now that's a gestalt. The hardcore followers seem challenged and appalled by the realization that anyone would besmirch the purity of their religious icon.
Yeah, okay. From my point of view it's difficult to imagine that any highly publicized affront to their beliefs could be viewed as destructive. I'm not among those who feel they are being subjected to that treatment. It's pretty much standard fare in Western societies for the old beliefs to be challenged on occasion (if not regularly). What is needed to bridge this gigantic gap in understanding?
