Horrifying as the photo is, its relevance to the thread is not clear to me.

I thought it was a response to those who always bring up Christian fundamentalism whenever there is some mention of Islamist violence.

In fairness thats in pretty bad taste considering what that woman (and so many like her) have gone through.

Once again a variant on the classic "false equivilency" argument - in this case - "our Christians fundamentalists aren't that bad because they don't commit exactly the same acts as Islamic fundamentalists".

A) Jesus Christ had a moustache
b) Adolph Hitler had a moustache
c) Followers of the teachings of Jesus Christ are called "Christians"
d) Followers of the teachings of Adolph Hitler are called "Nazis"
Therefore Christians and Nazis are the same.

Hmmm I seem to recollect you were one of those bringing up Christian fundamentalism when there was mention of Islamism on other theads. Doesn't this go both ways?

Undeniably true although it seems to me Jesus had a neatly trimmed beard rather than a moustache...

1) Hitler was a catholic
2) the nazi party was predominantly Lutheran
3) Catholicism and Lutheranism are just flavors of Christianity
Ergo:
You're right Christians and Nazis ARE the same

Seriously? Even I have heard of Hannity, and I don't even watch TV.

So what about Hannity? How come his listeners aren't objecting? This guy has been on Hannity, which I would have thought a lot of conservatives watch. He isn't some nobody.

Hannity who?

He does appear as a regular guest on Fox News and was just on Hannity last week and while the only female present called him out on his comments (Kristen Powers, a Fox News columnist) no one else did and Hannity sat there not getting involved and was just trying to attack the President, completely ignoring the argument which went on for about two minutes.

When have you been insisting that your country stays in Afghanistan to stop the taliban carrying on as before the second you leave, then?

What does that have to do with making jokes about a girl getting her nose cut off?

It rather rules out you taking a moral stance against the joke when you didn't give a flying fuck about the girl getting her nose cut off in the first place.

You have no clue what I do or do not give a flying fuck about. But if you find it funny, by all means, continue the jokes. The only one it will make look bad is you.

Why do you only relate this kind of political view to Christians? Islam is much more intolerant to women. That is why you have all these honour killings in western societies which nowadays are swept under the carpet to not insult anyone.

1. This board doesn't only relate this kind of political view to Christians. In this very thread, the activities of the Taliban are decried. Please pay attention.

2. The reason that Far Right Christians are more worrisome to many posters, myself included, is that they, not the taliban, are at his moment attempting to remake the government of this great country in their own narrow image.
