Because it is safe to criticize Christians. Not Muslims. Not Islam. Not Jews. Not Judaism. Not atheism. Just Christians. I think that makes you a coward.

In his day, the other religions we not that big an issue in the US. He did Jewish humor, too. But he criticized what he was familiar with from his own experience. Today people criticize Christianity although the know no more about it than they do other religions. It's just easy and safe.

Judging by his criticisms, he was as ignorant as those people today are.

If we Christians were the monster they think, they'd walk on eggshells around us like they do with Muslims and Islam.

Agreed. I equate it to Gun Free Zones - shooters choose their targets there.

Those aren't citations because none of those links say the people did those actions or threats in the name of Christianity, nor does it say if they were Christian. Plus, non-Christians and non-religious people can violently hate gay people.

The only religious person was in the third point; Libs of TikTok is Jewish like Ben Shapiro, so if that counted, it'd be in the name of Judaism.

Citation needed for that google search. You're just blindly blaming Christians for things mostly done by non-Christians. Now if we take examples from other groups;

A Muslim terrorist actually shot up a gay nightclub in Florida and murdered 49 people.

A trans terrorist actually shot up a Christian school in Tennessee, murdering six people and injuring one;

A militant atheist actually shot up a (Christian) church in Texas, murdering 26 people and injuring 22;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sutherland_Springs_church_shooting

Your attempt to demonize Christians has failed.

He was raised by nuns in a convent school who had a heart for God to do the right thing. George Carlin thanked them years later for that.

Thanked them by regularly mocking the God and religion they follow, from who they learned what was right and strove to follow that example, to millions?

That doesn't prove me wrong. And citation needed... or I could say the same just as easily of non-Christians (Perhaps the non-religious in particular. I mean, say what you want about the tenets of Scientology, Dude, at least it's an ethos.

Citation still needed.

The same can be said for other religions and the non-religious doing terrible things in their headquarters.

One massacre from Stalin's regime killed more than twice as many people as the Spanish Inquisition did in 356 years.

And if we're talking religious extremism and terrorism, the group with the most examples of that is Muslims by far.

Forgiveness doesn't mean not calling them out or pushing back against them.
