OK to Offend Christians -- again

Homosexuals, blacks and Muslims must not even be made "uncomfortable" by anything that someone else does or says but no such rules apply to Christians, apparently. The Roger Smith Hotel in NYC planned a display during Holy Week which featured a sculpture of a naked Jesus with genitals displayed. It was intended to provoke and it did. A prominent Catholic organization called for a boycott of the hotel as a result. So the hotel backed off.

Did Leftists applaud the banning of such an "insensitive" display and rejoice that Catholics can now feel "comfortable" to enter the hotel? No way! They frothed at the mouth about it and called the boycott letter "hate speech"!

Gateway Pundit has the details.

There's a picture of the "sculpture" here

there have been many attacks on Christianity before, david dunkle.

i am glad Christianity has gotten over them.

i am glad you admit this was an attack, too.

Christians are supposed to have a thick skin and ignore such offensiveness. Muslims, on the other hand, are allowed to be whiners.

"TURN THE CHEEK", VERSUS "GENOCIDAL BOMBING BECAUSE OF A CARTOON."

THE LEFT ENJOYS ATTACKING CHRISTIANITY - JUST LIKE THE ENEMY.

THE LEFT AND THE JIHADISTS HAVE A LOT IN COMMON.
