NBC sucks so says Bill Donohue

With rioting continuing in some Muslim countries over Danish cartoons portraying the Prophet Mohammed, Catholic League President Bill Donohue believes a "hypocritical" NBC is deliberately avoiding religion. "If you asked the average American to name something about Turin, Italy, they'd name the Shroud," Donohue said. "It's like having the Olympics in Fort Knox and not mentioning gold."

I don't mind Christians, but why do they always have to make it about their religion? I mean I always see them playing the religion card to get free funding for special schools or churches. I mean, what's up with that?
Am I the only one who's sick of all the preferential treatment?

I would like to see a link to this so called funding, last I saw there is no schools open that are considered Christian Scools with government funding. Same with churches. since your not from here let me educate you. There is a thing called seperation between church and state.

Because god take timeout from creating tests for his faithful followers to watch and help out the Olympians. That's why they alway thank god when they are interview after winning a medal.

You really think that Christians get preferential treatment? You're more ignorant than I thought.
Our government doesn't fund anything related to religion as far as I know. It's unconstitutional. In reality, Christians have less rights to express their religion than most others in the US.

Just more Christians playing victim. I'm sure you're all outraged about this, someone using their religion/race as an excuse to get what they want?
I'll assume you all this this is disgusting since you couldn't ALL be hypocrites, could you?
(I had to spell it out for you. You should be sad about that.)

i think his point is that when they talk about the olympics they usually do a "here is the history of the city it is held in" thing. nbc completly forgot that turin is home of one of the most famouse historic relics in the world
like he said it would be like holding it in fort knox and not mentioning its where all the gold is kept
if the olympics were held in mecca you know damn well they would talk about it being home of the muslims

I assumed you were trying to be a sarcastic ass, so I returned the favor
you're religionist omg <-- see what I did there? Making up a word and adding omg at the end typically means I'm not being serious, just for future reference
