Are Christians discriminated against more than those of other faiths?
#24
RE: Are Christians discriminated against more than those of other faiths?
In America, Christians put themselves in your face far more than any other religion. Ergo, we have more opportunities to make fun of them. I hear plenty of people criticize Islam. And I heard more than my fair share of why Jews are bad and wrong and evil, but then again I was raised in it.

As far as atheists go, I think it's not more or less acceptable to make fun of one or the other, rather I'd just repeat what DP said. You typically (it does happen, just not as visibly) do not see a Jewish leader get caught with his pants down... and no Wiccan ever barged into a courthouse demanding their principles be put on a plaque outside.

Although maybe I'm talking out of my ass - it is more acceptable to make fun of some. I have an issue with whatever religion decides it's okay to blow up civilians in the name of their god. That immediately puts Judaism, Christianity and Islam at the top of my shitlist.

I absolutely do not criticize Wiccans...to their faces. I hold out hope of being invited to a pagan orgy.
