you insult religon and religous people at every turn, yet you cant take a slightly racist joke?

wow.

Religion is an ideaology and a choice. Ethnicity is not.

Now that's being out of touch with reality.

uh... IMO, using stereotypes to create jokes is completely necessary... there are reasons stereotypes exist, it is not like one day someone decided to say "you know, i want to make people believe that all black people enjoy fried chicken, asians have small dicks, trailer parks are breeding grounds for white trash, kentucky is full of white trash, california is full of greenies, etc"

No. Racism like this is nothing but hatred cloaked as bad humor. I respect the fact that everyone has a right to their own opinion, but my opinion is that anyone who says things like this needs to be removed from the gene pool.

If you are going to be racist, at least be clever. Tell me something I haven't heard before, besides the watermelon, chicken, and waffles bullshit.

I wouldn't call that joke racist. It's stereotyping while using a hurtful word, but it's not racist.

In all seriousness, you're on ATOT; if you haven't grown a thick enough skin to deal with something like this by now there is no hope for you at all. =/

I think he's spends the majority of his days jacking off to Richard Dawkins videos and berating those that choose religion.


EDIT: BTW, he thinks this joke is racist, but sure likes the Charlie Brown Kwanzaa. video.
