9. Associating all Christians with the actions of a few Christians?Group sterotyping and mocking-Imus |
|
like behavior - even when directed at such awful folks like "Christians" - does seem bigoted to some people -
but it is not bigoted behavior in the eyes of all people -obviously.

10. And what you makes you think that this is a associating this to all Christians? |
|
Does it not specifically select those who engage in homophobic activities in the name of their "deeply held religious beliefs"

12. The christian is specifically hitting a homosexual. |
|
Do you spend all day looking for reasons to feel persecuted?
Must be a full time job considering you live in a mini-theocracy that elevates you and yours above the rest of us sinners.

13. Are there SOME christians that act that way? |
|
Then that is who the cartoon is aimed at. There is nothing in the cartoon that indicates that it is aimed at ALL christians.

14. The cartoon person is white too. Seems nonspecific. The cartoon obviously |
|
means that all white people hate gays. Oh yes.
Is there some other reason why it means all?

Man
Man, sorry. What knight lives in that castle over there?
I'm 37.
What?
I'm 37, I'm not old.
Well, I just can't call you man.
Well, you could say Dennis.
I didn't know you were called Dennis.
Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you?
I did say sorry about the old woman but from behind you looked...
What I object to is that you automatically treat me like an inferior!

28. It is if you're that type of christian too. |
|
Notice how few other DU christians identify with homophobic fundamentalists?
Unlike where I live, most of DU's christians can not only protest the mocking and criticizing fundamentalists, they gladly engage in the same sport because they realize the difference between extremists and liberals.
Notice I said MOST christians on DU. There are a few who can't tell the difference between their brand of christianity and that of fundies so they live in a chronic state of faux-victimization.
The voices of real victims of persecution are diminished by their idiotic claims and mock outrage.

26. Ha! It's even more telling that the charter member of the |
|
Iwannabepersecuted Club is STILL offended by it, even though it's been posted on DU dozens of times.
I bet he scans Albert Mohler's blog and the Baptist Press News every day for proof of how christians are persecuted daily in this country.
