Christians are the large majority in this country, how can you act like the whole world is against you?
Your initial post reminds me of bitter white guys during the civil rights movement who bitched about how nobody is allowed to talk shit about blacks. I can just see you now, "Oh I see, some black guys get hosed down and now they are protected by liberals!"
I wish I would have seen your initial post before, so I wouldn't have wasted so much time replying to your bullshit in the Politics THREAD.
JESUS CHRIST, BUDDY!
@Mr. Sensitive
First, as was pointed out in the politics thread, Mormons are not considered Christian by a large percentage of Christianity. Romney is a Mormon. I am a Mormon. In this regard, I'm part of a minority, and I'm not too fond of people criticizing my religion.
Second, I don't remember saying the whole world was against me or my religion. I just pointed out a particular instance of bigotry, one that does not represent everyone, or every Christian, or even every evangelical Christian. It represents a sizable group, however, so don't discount that. But the point of this thread has nothing to do with majorities and minorities, but rather the inappropriateness of belittling anyone's faith, not whom we can and cannot criticize under the stupid liberal laws of political correctness (did you really even read it: I think I talk about much more than just Mormonism).
Third, even if we consider Mormonism under the greater umbrella of Christianity, is it really okay to be bigoted towards a majority? Why is that acceptable? I think we had this discussion before; it's wrong to belittle someone else's faith.
Fourth, since you are not religious at all, would you mind having the decency to respect my faith and not use Jesus Christ's name so disrespectfully?
Fifth, your comparison to bitter whites is a very popular (and idiotic) liberal tactic that has nothing to do with what I'm talking about, but is instead an attempt to equate any self-defense to racism. Wow, that's never been done by the left. Everything has to be about bitter white folks with you guys. You're obsessed with finding racism where it doesn't exist!
Sixth, don't waste your time replying to this or any comment I write. I promise that somehow I won't let my feelings get hurt. You seem remarkably narrow-minded for an "open-minded liberal atheist," and your comments have consistently rubbed me the wrong way. So please, as a walking phallus, keep your urethra shut and keep your pissy comments to yourself.
