I think all religion is supertitious nonsense, without regard to whether it's Islam being practiced by Arabs in the Middle East, or Christianity being practiced by white male fundamentalists in the U.S. Bible Belt.

Glass probably doesn't get that most of this is Internet Racism, mostly harmless stuff made for the lolz, and not because some whites really think it's cool to insult Islam.
I'm afraid both of you are kidding yourselves. Even an atheist can be offended by insults that are based on religion, or the lack thereof - insults are insults, and the fact that it's based on religion doesn't make it a non-insult. Also, the mere fact that racism is expressed on the internet doesn't make it something other than racism.
But as I've said (and I realize it doesn't matter one way or the other what I say), I personally am willing to believe that people who believe that Muslims are being unreasonable about this are not "racists." Maybe that makes me a racist myself, but obviously I'd like to think not. The point is that not everyone believes this, and many of the people who don't are Muslims - especially now that Wikipedia has proven their point so abundantly and consistently.
