The hysteria over Obama's former pastor's attacks on America shows we're still in thrall to knee-jerk patriotism.

    You should see how so called christians treat their women? ALL institutionalized religions relegate women to second class citizenship. The hierarchy in the christian lexicon is god, jesus, man, woman, children. Spare the rod and spoil the child has given divine dispensation to parents to abuse children. Wives are commanded to be subservient to their husbands, albeit without a veil.

    Women, around the world and in this country as well, are subjected to brutal treatment by men who hide behind the Bible, Koran and the Pope, not to mention any number of cult leaders to extol their followers to regain control of their families from femi-Nazis.

    I think it is specious to suggest that Wright should confront Islam when christianity too espouses anti-women practices.
