Muslim protests in India are calling for a boycott of Pampers products after claiming to have seen the word 'Mohammed' in the face of a cartoon cat which appears on its nappies.

The lines illustrating the whiskers, nose, mouth and left eye of the smiley feline have been suggested to resemble the Prophet's name when written in Arabic or Urdu, although the company that makes the products vehemently denied the claims.

Procter and Gamble in a statement that said they would never intend to offend any person or religion and the the design showed 'an innocent animated representation of a cat.'

However, the image on the hygiene product has been branded an 'insult' to Islam by critics, and protesters have staged 'Pampers burnings'

Default What...

I once saw the face of Jesus in a potato chip and you don't see me worshiping it.

I swear, people will find the justification to complain about anything these days.

Those were good chips though...

It is weird how one religion sees the random appearance of its God somewhere as a good thing while another sees it is blasphemy?

The Virgin Mary or the face of Jesus in a cloud is a good thing. Mohammed on a diaper box is a bad thing.

Would it have been a good thing if his name was on a package of yummy food?

people are weird.

I don’t see it, but as long as they aren’t burning people, have at it!
