Just musing. According to one of the posts recently, lots of students have read or seen the DaVinci Code. Isn't that a bit like the Satanic verses? Salman Rushdie was not thought to be exploring interesting ideas that the mainstream missed. Do we have a double standard here? I find the Da Vinci Code to be uninspired writing, bad history and boring, as well as offensive to Christian beliefs: but I wouldn't ban it. The cartoons(which I never saw) were probably uninspired, bad history etc etc. as well as, obviously, offensive to Muslim beliefs.
