In Germany, a book was published a few months ago, in which a pig and a hedgehog both go around trying to discover if God exists.
The author, Michael Schmidt-Salomon and the illustrator, Helge Nyncke, are being criticized for their depiction of the three monotheistic religions.

Especially amazing is the following drawing, where you can see that the pig is actually trampling on ripped-out pages of the Koran.
Yes, it's obvious that jewish groups in Germany and elsewhere are upset, but wait until someone discovers that this little piggie is trampling on the holy pages of the Koran. You're gonna see some fireworks then!
Oy vey!
