More tolerance from the progressives. I hope no one still believes that they are “religiously neutral”.

In Massachusetts an 8 year-old was suspended for drawing a crucifix at school.
It was offensive.

The Taunton Gazette reported:

A Taunton father is outraged after his 8-year-old son was sent home from school and required to undergo a psychological evaluation after drawing a stick-figure picture of Jesus Christ on the cross.

The father said he got a call earlier this month from Maxham Elementary School informing him that his son, a second-grade student, had created a violent drawing. The image in question depicted a crucified Jesus with Xs covering his eyes to signify that he had died on the cross. The boy wrote his name above the cross.

“As far as I’m concerned, they’re violating his religion,” the incredulous father said.

He requested that his name and his son’s name be withheld from publication to protect the boy.

The student drew the picture shortly after taking a family trip to see the Christmas display at the National Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette, a Christian retreat site in Attleboro. He made the drawing in class after his teacher asked the children to sketch something that reminded them of Christmas, the father said.

But GLSEN books promoting sex between first graders are promoted, of course.

NYTimes finally acknowledges that anti-Prop. 8 mob is harassing traditional marriage supporters

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 8, 2009 06:11 AM

Hell is frozen over. The New York Times has finally come to the realization that the anti-Prop. 8 mob in California is intimidating traditional marriage supporters with its blacklist maps.

What took them so damn long?

FOR the backers of Proposition 8, the state ballot measure to stop single-sex couples from marrying in California, victory has been soured by the ugly specter of intimidation.

Some donors to groups supporting the measure have received death threats and envelopes containing a powdery white substance, and their businesses have been boycotted.

The targets of this harassment blame a controversial and provocative Web site, eightmaps.com.

…The site pits…cherished values against each other: political transparency and untarnished democracy versus privacy and freedom of speech.

“When I see those maps, it does leave me with a bit of a sick feeling in my stomach,” said Kim Alexander, president of the California Voter Foundation, which has advocated for open democracy.

Muslim Hate Crimes

From Moonbattery

The Progressive and the Mainstream Media (but I repeat myself) got all worried that after an Islamist killed 14 human beings at Fort Hood, that Christians would go mad with rage and an epidemic of anti-Muslims hate crimes would follow. Because, to left-wing logic, Jesus Christ’s most devout followers will show their faith by behaving in exactly the opposite way Jesus Christ taught them to.

Well, there have been some incidents of violence since the Fort Hood terror attack.

In Hayward, California, a Christian employee at a mall kiosk attacked a shopper for wearing a hijab… Oops, no, wait, it was a Muslim employee who attacked a Christian shopper for wearing a crucifix.

Police arrested 22-year-old Abdul Walid Hamid of Hayward on the evening of Wednesday, Nov. 4, after he reportedly tore a crucifix from a person’s neck and scared others at Stoneridge Shopping Center. According to reports, Hamid was yelling “Allah is power” and “Islam is great” while holding a pen in a fist over his head.

And in Rochester, New York, a man tried to run down pedestrians in his car while shouting “Jesus Loves You.” No, not really. Though the crime seems to be more about bad taste in “women” than about jihad, there are some interesting details.

According to court documents, when he was arrested, Munir Muthana was yelling remarks such as “F*** the police,” “Ben Franklin was stupid,” “The Muslims will fix this country,” and “I was trying to fight that f***** shemale.” …. While he was also heard muttering words like “jihad” and “hating Americans,” he also reportedly said he didn’t hate Americans, just police.

I wonder if Munir Muthana will be on Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s jury. He is Obama has entitled him to a jury of his peers.

Brave Leftist Comedian Pi$$es on Jesus Painting In HBO Series

What a brave Hollywood leftist!

Larry David inspects the Jesus painting he peed on during the latest episode of “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”
Hilarious.

Comedian Larry David pi$$ed on a painting of Jesus in the latest episode of the HBO Series “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”
FOX News reported:

Comedian Larry David is under attack from critics who say he pushed the mocking of religion and Christian belief in miracles over the edge in the latest episode of his HBO series “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

On the show’s most recent installment, which aired Sunday, David urinates on a painting of Jesus Christ, causing a woman to believe the painting depicts Jesus crying.

Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League, responded to the episode, saying David should “quit while he’s ahead,” and that the show is proof that the comedian’s best years are behind him.

“Was Larry David always this crude? Would he think it’s comedic if someone urinated on a picture of his mother?” Donohue said in a statement. “This might be fun to watch, but since HBO only likes to dump on Catholics (it was just a couple of weeks ago that Sarah Silverman insulted Catholics on ‘Real Time with Bill Maher’) and David is Jewish, we’ll never know.”
