Extra-whiny American Family Association attacks U of Virginia newspaper for anti-Christian bigotry

[marmar]

Wonder if they'd get this worked up about a cartoon featuring Allah? :shrug:


University of Virginia newspaper mocks Christ and Christians



Last week, the University of Virginia's student paper, The Cavalier Daily, ran a cartoon depicting a naked man smoking a cigarette in bed. Standing beside the bed, a woman in her underwear buttons up her shirt and asks, "Come on God, be honest - Did you really get a vasectomy? I can't let Joseph find out about this." The man replies, "Well, Mary, you're f***ed."

The editors used the week before Holy Week to run this bigoted cartoon belittling Christ and Christians. Just a day earlier, the paper ran a cartoon portraying a crucified Jesus telling jokes onstage.


Take Action!



Send an e-mail to Gov. Kaine and the members of the state college board asking that the university's newspaper show more class, intelligence and tolerance in the cartoons they run, and to stop their anti-Christian bias.

Forward this alert to friends and family and urge them to send an e-mail.

7. No thank you

Donald, I am a firm believer in the First Amendment and the notion that everyone who so chooses can be from Religion. BTW, do you also send emails to counter rabid religious nuts foaming in the mouth while try to take away a womens reproductive rights, and equality under the law for gays?
