We're gonna do a little religion rioting!

At least, that's what those insightful cultural commentators on The View think American Christians would do -- a la Sudanese Muslim fanatics -- if a teddy bear in this country were named Jesus by elementary school students. As a commenter at Hot Air points out, "Mexicans call themselves Jesus all the time. Why isn’t The View freaked out about that?" (Note: "Mohammed" is, according to the Columbia Encyclopedia, "probably the most common given name" in the world, so apparently it's just stuffed animals and cartoons that can't share the placement and organization of alphabetical characters with religious leaders in the minds of crazed Muslims and mentally challenged talk show hostesses).
Thanks to Harvey at IMAO for shedding a little light (and a great deal of sarcastic humor, which is aimed squarely at The View's resident windbags) on the situation, as he presents images of nativity scenes (complete with pseudo-likenesses of baby Jesus) cast in the form of chickens, moose(s? or is it "meese"?), bears, dogs, cats, and mice, accompanied by the insightful question:
The broads at The View seem to think this post will make Christians flip out like crazed Sudanese Muslims.
Personally, I think it'll make 'em go "awwwww... how CUTE!"
or
"Uh... ok, that's kinda dumb."
for women and men respectively.
If I'm wrong, and fanatical Christians behead me, then posting may be light for the next few days.

...most of the flaming liberals in this county are so sheltered and so comfortable that, to them, Christians vocally opposing something (or even refusing to buy tickets, line up like sheep, and attend offensive shows or art displays) is, to them, every bit as scary -- and as crazy -- as a bunch of nameless, faceless Muslims in some far-off country threatening to blow up buildings and behead people over a perceived religious insult.

They probably thought it laudatory.
Hey, how can I post to multiple subjects? Or is it something only you folks with the juice and the super-secret decoder ring can do?

I showed that image to my 8th and 9th grade students (and the story about the stuffed animal too). It really upset them.

I know what you were referring to. I was just trying to give an image of the Dark Ages when some Christians would actually attack someone for stupid reasons. The torch was referring to the time that witches were burned at the stake. Of course, some liberals really are witches :o). The point being, the whole thing about Christians being like those Islamic nut jobs is ridicules.
It was sarcasm.

Why are we even paying attention to these maniacs at The Zoo,... uhh,... The View?
Can Barbara be any more idiotic? And this Joy person... look, nothing against the mentally handicapped, but does she need to on this show?! What sort of line-up is this when Whoopi is very often the voice of reason? Good grief!
If I ever watch another clip I'm going to have to make sure I have my wallet in my mouth so I don't swallow my tongue! (Like Kramer hearing Mary Hart's voice.)

Even with Rosy gone, is the IQ on that set still so low?
The title begs a question; from what perspective? I suppose we could speculate it's the "view" from a ward for the metally infirm, no? I mean who else would come up with such ungrounded, incomprehensible nonsense.
Let's just say we ignore centuries of direct Christian persecution (do lions and burning at the stake ring any bells ladies? No? Well why don't you tour the Vatican art collection. There are plenty of good reference points and it's pictures after all) or the steady pounding in art and legal cases Christians have more recently taken from liberals. Now, I'll admit to working alot and sometimes missing things but where were the riots and machetes? Did I miss that? Oh, and don't even get me started on what Christian doctrine says about that type of behavior. For Pete's sake did you ever take a catechism class? I didn't know you could wash out of that education.
Honestly, I hope they keep representing the Hillary-B. Hussein demographic right through the election.
Oh and if this keeps up count me among the supporters of earmarks for adult education.

what did we Christians do when the NEA funded an "art" exhibit with a crucifix in a jar of urine?
or what about the elephant dung- Virgin Mary portrait?
Or what about Marty Scorsese's little flick with Jesus fantasizing about banging Mary Magdaline?
Something tells me naming a teddy bear "Jesus" would rate pretty low in terms of the (often state funded and always media-lauded) indignities that Christians put up with in this country.
