It's hard to beat the sex appeal of omnipotence.

Why is it a good idea to make fun of a person's religious beliefs?

I've been wondering the same for some time now. It seems that in the past year or so, it's become fair game here like never before. Beats me.

Maybe it's because so many of these candidates have starting pushing their faith into the public eye. Rick Perry prays for rain. Bachman says god's trying to send us a message with earthquakes and hurricanes. They're easy targets.

For the record, yes, I agree that Bachman/Perry/et al's references to faith go a bit over the top at times. They comes across as petty and pandering. I have a hard time condoning commensurate retaliatory behavior, however (that is to say, I think your original post is the definition of petty). So many of your posts are quite thoughtful and well-reasoned. This (the original, I mean) certainly isn't one of them.

Since when is religion such a sacred cow?

Also for the record, I'm not one who believes faith is a fool's errand or however you put it. I believe blind adherence to religious dogma very much IS however. Christian, Muslim, or The Church of Lloyd Bridges; anyone who believes their faith is superior to mine or anyone else's or is the only path to enlightenment is gonna be fair game in my book. Funny how those people often end up being Christian.

No one makes fun of Chilcut. People disagree, but almost always, respectfully. I doubt that Jewish beliefs are mocked, at least I haven't seen it here on OD. Same for our atheistic believers; people disagree, but rarely mock them. It seems only one religion is fair game for insulting and mocking, and that should not be a surprise.
