Being politically correct is an essential aspect of liberal orthodoxy. According to liberals, Americans should be able to live their entire lives free from offense of any kind. In fact, liberals have turned taking offense into an art form. To thin-skinned liberals, few things are more offensive than the supposed trauma of hurt feelings. This is why left-leaning colleges and universities—which is to say most colleges and universities—have adopted speech codes as a way to enforce political correctness. These codes are supposed to ensure that no one will ever suffer the insidious ignominy of hurt feelings—no one that is except Christians, conservatives, and middle-aged white males. When it comes to people in these three groups, the rules of political correctness somehow do not apply.

People that hold extremist views and try to foist them up on society at large are called out for it.

Christians, conservatives and middle-aged white males
So are Atheists, and liberals. So what's your point?
Trying to sell "middle-aged white males" as an oppressed class is just too funny.

Setting aside the fact that generalizations like yours are meaningless, there are extremists on both the liberal and conservative side. It's been my experience that the majority of extremists don't see their views as being extreme.

Politically centered is now considered leftwing extremism in comparison to the current RWNJ gibberish.

Ironically, Christians demand political correctness toward themselves at least as much as any other group. Today on "CBS This Morning" I saw Pat Buchanan complaining about liberals trying to "censor" his book, even though I don't recall any effort to keep his book from being published, just attacks on the reprehensible ideas contained therein.
But really, Christians as an oppressed group? The group that has had lots of TV shows endorsing their beliefs and lifestyles ("Touched by an Angel," "Seventh Heaven," and now the Duggars' reality show)? A group that gets offended when atheists put up billboards regardless of the tone of the message, often in places where Christians put up billboards calling atheists traitors with impunity? Please.

This could use repeating for those with short memories:
Nidal Malik Husan opened fire on a military base killing 13 people. Army authorities knew about Husan’s violent anti-American rhetoric. They were also aware of his ties to radical Muslim imams, but were afraid to take any action for fear of being accused of engaging in racial profiling. In other words, the Army brass did not want to be politically incorrect.
TSA can strip search helpless grandmothers in wheel chairs, but heaven forbid that anyone question a Muslim with a history of making violent threats against Americans.

Christians, conservatives, and middle-aged white males.
You mean the same groups who are trying to forbid women to control their OWN BODIES? The groups who have been running the world since the beginning? The ones who hold the power?
Really?

#5 - Tue Feb 21, 2012 3:55 PM ESTYou want to read a book about organized religion, Try reading "The Unholy Church", It points out all the flaws and misdeeds In the old and new testaments. Kinda like what Rushdi did with the Koran. The book's author is Mark L. Holland.
And my veiws on any organized Religion is they are used to control the populations of the world.
