The tweets at the bottom didn't even register with me.  I was looking for an appropriately sized pic that would show the clothing but wouldn't take up a whole page.  You google "met gala christianity fashion show" and you'll get loads of images.




Oh, I think that would be incorrect.  There was almost no "blowback" to this show.  Now, if you were drawing Mohammed or mocking Islam, I think you'd get considerably more "blowback"




I think you'll find both groups are routinely mocked without much, if any, "blowback".



Ok, I reiterate my question, how much cultural power does a group have to possess before it's acceptable to make fun of them or mock their tenants?

Three of the four sites with that photo were "blowback" against the event.  A google search of that phrase you suggested show plenty of people question the offensiveness of the event.  (An event I wouldn't even have known about with out your posting it.)

Never said it was acceptable.  I said the larger/more influential the group the more likely they will get mocked/criticiszed.  And more likely some of the their members will react to it.

Full disclosure I believe one should have a healthy disrespect for all institutions lest they get swallowed up in believing everything they are told about it.
