It happens on both sides. Some atheists don't care, some people of faith don't care about the atheists. Some atheists think everybody who's religious is a dumb sheep, some people of faith shout and yell the same things.
Personally - I'm more agnostic, maybe with a little faith that there's some higher power. The only thing that bothers me is when christians, muslims, jews, or whatever other religion deny evidence that they disagree with. Like choosing not to teach your kids about evolution and such I'm not OK with. You can choose to be ignorant, but at least let your kids learn about the theory and see the evidence for themselves.EDW

Apparently, some atheists on the board don't care about offending Christians. But, denying evidence they don't agree with?
Why do liberals get to decide WHAT evidence is valid? Besides that, I do agree with you with teaching kids about
evolution. But not at the chosen expense of teaching about Creation. Creation exists, too. Oddly, you libs want to get
to choose what beliefs/theories get taught, and which ones are not. Why not teach both, and let the kids decide
for themselves? But no, liberals hate self-determination/self-actualization, because they want to control what gets
self-determined and self-actualized. There's plenty of evidence supporting Biblical events. Liberals hate that possibility.

I'm for teaching science in science class

The scientific method says to study without bias. When have liberals ever done that?

The next major holiday for Muslims will be the first one I have ever heard of
You've never heard of Ramadan?
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -
I goof on everyone, left or right.
Oh, I know, it wasn't directed at you, just that the left does it so often, and jblu's op is offensive. I mean, the left tends to
go freaking irate if you complain about Muslims, even only the extremist Muslims. They think it isn't "fair".
But, they are right there to criticize/ridicule/offend Christians.
You see jblu posting anything about Mohammed? Nope. woody? nope. Do you see anyone here with spiritual beliefs
ridiculing non-believers? Ever?
But generally, liberals can't stand anything that isn't them, that is mainstream. They always have to be fighting windmills.

Most left sources that act that way are terrified of retribution from muslims but too scared to admit out loud that is why they won't tread on Islam.

I would guess most people have heard that word, but most people have no idea what it meansYou've never heard of Ramadan?
It's not like Christmas or Easter where almost everyone knows what they mean
-
If I'm not mistaken it's also a period of fasting and atonement. Not really a big party so I think there's a celebration after Ramadan.

That probably plays a factor in some cases
But if you were going to poke fun at / critique a religion, it would make sense to use the one you are most familiar with and the one most prevalent in your country. If you're from the US, that means Christianity.

The butthole puckering from audiences on shows like Real Time when Islam catches static like every other religion makes me think it isn't just that Americans are most familiar with Christianity.
