Me Too, And How Totally Appropriate!

Jelly beans… I lurves them!
I took a look at the quiz. This is really in poor taste and ridicules the religion of millions of people in hundreds of countries at the holiest of all observances. Fortunately, it is not ridiculing Muslims, just Christians.
Posted by Norma on 04/15 at 08:51 PMWe do try to be equal opportunity offenders around here, so I’ll take that as a compliment.
Good thing we aren’t Muslim, or we might get a touch offended at the implication that a stupid internet quiz would turn us into explosive murdering maniacs. But I suppose that’s different, isn’t it?
Posted by Deb on 04/15 at 09:24 PMSheesh, I would normally assume the first comment was satirical, but these days…
In case it isn’t, it seems like someone was looking to pick a fight. I mean, offense over Easter candy? And the commentor missed the sarcastic poke at people who don’t appreciate the religious foundations of what are now largely secular holidays.
Or maybe she were just hypoglycemic?
Posted by Ben on 04/16 at 09:10 AMOf course, it’s entirely possible that I just missed the original satire because I’m in a bit of a mood the last few days. *shrug* But you’re right about “these days” and I tend to assume now that these things are serious, I think, even when my own sense of humor isn’t taking a coffee break. I’ve obviously been reading too many blogs again.
Posted by Deb on 04/16 at 09:24 AMThe way things are going we might have to start strapping explosives on ourselfs and blowing stuff up just because someone draws a cartoon we don’t like..
Sorry folks but this is America. we are a mix of all kinds of people with all kinds of beliefs. Learn to be tolerant of others or get out.Posted by Wayne on 04/16 at 11:37 AM
