[Knonsense]

I don't think it's cool, personally, but I don't object that much. I think that most Christians are rational individuals and a lot of criticism of Christianity is unfounded, but people can think what they want to think, and it's better than if they were a protected class.

 

[ChromeAlchemist]

Where have you been? Christians have been the fucking whipping boy for any and all that feel like they need to mock someone for a very, very long time. It's irritating. But to be honest, all religions get their fair share of slating in comedy, so I guess tht's the best it can get.

But really you don't get criticised for making jokes about any religion unless it's Islam. And that's because muslims don't take any shit from people, and they kick up a (sometimes deserved) fuss about insults on what they believe in.

Anyway, another religion thread people, it's that time again!

 

[Shycte]

If we all could accept one another we could make jokes about eachother.

And about christian people. If you go to a KKK meating and make a black joke you'll get the same reaction.

Well, I and a few others on this site would say 'no, it's not.'
But, the anti-theists and theophobes will say 'of course it is!'.

However, the 'holocaust for Christians' line is a bit much, I think.

Also, be prepared for the anti-theists and theophobes on this site. They are, unfortunately, rather vocal.
I agree with you, however, and find it very annoying.

 

[Caliostro]

Mostly because ironically christians (in general, no, not YOU specifically) have became such an idiotic pain in the ass most people feel no guilt mocking them... Kinda like "White trash" is the only racial expression you can use without raising a mob.


The stupid thing is: jokes should never be taken seriously, and getting insulted at comedy is ridiculous.

That said, you gotta admit you guys put yourselves on the line thought...

 

[Simriel]

It is perfectly acceptable to mock stains made by people named Chris. Christians on the other hand...

 

[Darth Mad]

I laught at jewish, black, buddist and christian jokes because they ARE JUST JOKE. It depend if the intention behind the joke is only to make people laught or to cruelly moke these people.

 

[llewgriff]

I think the world would be truly tolerant if everyone was able to make fun of everyone else.

 

[Yeager942]

I totally agree with the OP. Of all religious groups, Christians get the worst rep. God help you if you mock another religion, but for Christianity, go ahead! Take a swing!

 

[The-Big-D]

Only if its the Westborough Bapist Church. There morons.

i know the holocoust for chirstians is over the top but when you think about this anti chirstians thing is even leaked its dirty head into the media that was one of things that happend before the holocoust

Not true in school a teacher heard me use the phrase, there was a big talk, somthing about me being racist and offencive(I'm white by the way).

 

[Siris]

Of course! Maybe even more so than other religions, since Christians have been hogging the limelight for years

 

[ElephantGuts]

Yes, that's how it works with majorities vs. minorities. Welcome to the world.

EDIT: "Holocaust for the Christians"-

Really? Is that going to happen? Christians are the majority. Who exactly is going to conduct a Holocaust against them? You would need to have a sci-fi setting where world demographics have changed drastically for something like that to happen.

 

[darthzew]

I think that you should be able to make a few jokes about anything, but it always get taken too far. I've personally had enough with the Christian jokes. Let's move on to someone else now, shall we?

 

[JMeganSnow]

I don't care who you are, if you make yourself ridiculous you deserve mockery, including Jews, blacks, Buddhists and everyone else. If your ego is too touchy to tolerate mockery, stay home.

Personally, I think Jews are hysterical, particularly the ones I worked with in New York. They are good-natured about it, they just wanted us to avoid putting ham in the kosher fridge.

 

[pffh]

The hell? I mock everyone and no has called me a nazi, kkk member or anything. I've been told to shut up when I start randomly mocking groups way to close to said groups but meh.

 

[Simalacrum]

i think people should be shunned if they mock any religion with no specific purpose. if they have a serious point to make thats critical about religion though (e.g. the Pope recently shunning the use of condoms in Africa, which is just arrogant and disgusting imo) should be taken seriously and not mocked.
