This is textbook observational bias, IMO.

Christians are not singled out for their beliefs any more than a Muslim or Jew is singled out for theirs.




We'll have to agree to disagree. There are many instances that could be brought up where Chrsitians are singled out while Muslims have been left alone.

Just to name one.....when is the last time you have seen a Christian portrayed on television in which he was not a wild eyed crazy person, or was used to make fun of?

Jokes are continuously made about Christians, but you rarely hear of any about Muslims.

If you see a show on television in which terrorism occurs a Muslim is always brought in for questioning and exonerated. When is the last time you have seen a Muslim portrayed on television as a terrorist? Usually it turns out to be a fringe Christian group/person.

You don't have to agree with my observations...but watch and see if I am correct. Fair enough?


I shouldn't have gotten involved. This is a sports board and I have gotten way off topic...even for this thread.

seriously?

I mean, UGA is in the bible belt so I imagine I am in the minority here, but there is just no way that you can say that Americans give Christians shite for their beliefs and don't do the same to Muslims.

I'm not even saying that Christians don't get singled out. They do. You just think it happens to you and no one else because you - like every other human on this planet - pay attention to your own group more than others.

We can agree to disagree, but as someone who is neither a Christian or a Muslim (or a Jew, for that matter)...I strongly disagree.
