ROTFLMAO! But really you wouldn't hear much whining if it were
that way. Christians don't usually act like victims whenever there's
someone with a different viewpoint. Look at all the christian-bashing
that goes on. You hardly hear a peep!

Everything will all get cleared up when the Islamics release "Jesus,
Prophet and Not Quite Allah!" next year. Of course, the Islamic faith
will wonder why all the Christians think it's so controversial since it
comes from their historical religious texts, so it must be true.
I'll be waiting for the Jewish release:
"Jesus, the Original Moonie!" A light hearted look on how those crazy
cults can pop-up overnight and really get the youth stirred up.
