There is a serious anti-Christian vibe around here

185. But we don't actually demand that - the right-wingers do

That is kind of my point. DU-ers don't generally make calls for all Muslims to explicit denounce each act of Islamic extremism. That is something one finds on Fox News and other places of that ilk.

I get that, for the most part, much of the response along that vein is meant satirically, but I think there is also a way that some folks here talk about Christians that is harsher than what would be directed towards believers of other faiths. Maybe that is reasonable since Christians are the minority, but it just has a similar vibe to what one sees on the right with regard to Muslims.

I would also again point out that it is not yet clear what the motives and background of the PP shooter were, and it seems like many are quick to jump to conclusions in the same way that the RW does when an attack is committed by a Muslim.

Those are just my observations - I get where folks are coming from, and I may be off base - that's why I shared by thoughts and am trying to thoughtfully respond to those who post in this thread.
