O'Donnell on ABC: 'Radical Christians' no different than murderous radical Muslims
Neither O'Donnell nor ABC has apologized
ABC's Rosie O'Donnell told a nationwide audience this week that "radical Christians" are the same as radical Muslims who piloted hijacked jetliners into New York's Twin Towers, who chop off the heads of individuals and who bomb innocent children in suicide attacks. O'Donnell made her comments as host of ABC's "The View."
"Radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam in a country like America where we have separation of church and state," O'Donnell said. She had been saying that America was attacked "not by a nation." She continued: "And as a result of the attack and the killing of 3,000 innocent people, we invaded two countries and killed innocent people." Even her liberal co-hosts were shocked by her comments.
Co-host Joy Behar protested that Christians are not trying to impose mass murder on America. "This group (radical Muslims) is threatening to kill us." Replied O'Donnell: "No, but we are bombing innocent people in other countries. True or false?"
O'Donnell was saying there is no difference between the radical Muslims who kill in the name of Allah and Bible-believing Christians who follow the teachings of Jesus.
Neither O'Donnell nor ABC apologized for the comments. Had she made similar comments about minorities or homosexuals, there would have been an apology, and she would have probably been fired.
The message from ABC is that bashing Christians is acceptable, even comparing them with murderers who kill in the name of Allah.

I don't understand this, what's up with Hollywood continuously taking shots at Christianity, but it's inconsiderate and insensitive to bad mouth the jews and muslims in the media. One guy can come out and say let's have a "Holy Jihad" and the only way we'll be successful is by eliminating or converting every Christian and Jew, and they don't think it's wrong but rather ambitious. Then you have the Atheist and the yahood trying to keep God out of everything in this country (pledge of allegiance, prayer in schools etc...) so that it can fall deeper into the moral sh!thole it has become. Anyway, my latest beef came after reading this e-mail:
Please help us get this information into the hands of as many people as possible by forwarding it to your entire email list of family and friends.
NBC, Madonna Set To Mock The Crucifixion of Christ
<https://store.afa.net> Help send one million emails asking NBC to show Christians the same respect they show other religions
Following the lead of Rosie O'Donnell and ABC, NBC has decided to join in the bashing of Christians by airing a Madonna special in November. A specific date has not been released.
In the show, Madonna, wearing a fake crown of thorns, descends on a suspended mirrored, disco ball-type cross. When some Christian leaders complained about the mockery, NBC ignored their concerns.
Making mockery of the crucifixion of Christ has been a trademark of Madonna for many years. In 1989 she had a video for the hit song "Like A Prayer." The video featured burning crosses, statues crying blood and Madonna--representing Jesus--freeing a saint from his sexual repression by seducing him. This is the same Madonna who once said, "Crucifixes are sexy because there's a naked man on them."
Kevin Reilly, an executive at NBC, said Madonna considered the scene mocking the crucifixion of Christ the highlight of her show. "We (NBC) viewed it and didn't see it as being inappropriate." Madonna considers mocking the crucifixion of Jesus the highlight of her show and NBC agrees.
3. Help get the word out about Madonna's mocking the crucifixion by forwarding this email to your entire mailing list and urge them to take action.
