^^^Who is giving anyone "shit?"

I think you're being a little ridic.

When people put their lifestyles on TV, it gets talked about. No one is giving Christians "shit."

Also, I feel like I need to address your "everybody gets shit" comments. I tend to LOL when people get on their presecutory complex re: "getting shit" for being Christian.

America is probably the most comfortable place to be Christian. Seriously. Or really any other religion for that matter. Don't believe me? Go on a mission trip. Seriously, a TV show where people make fun of you pales in comparison to imprisonment.

Yep, these types of shows are meant to entertain. People who want to understand the plight of the Christian Virgin need not turn to TLC.

It's most comfortable for being a Christian. I have overheard people ridiculing Christianity and instead of getting offended I have reminded myself that almost everyday there are Christians around the world who ridicule agnostics, atheists, Jews, Muslims, etc. So, BOOM, fellow Christians. We need to get over the fact that we too say and do things that are considered ridiculous by other Christians and nonChristians. Our response should not be "EVERYONE is a hypocrite. EVERYONE" ( @ thetaj) because that type of response to any form of criticism is almost always silly. Plus, we certainly do not consider the "EVERYONE is a..." routine when we're busy giving our Biblical and nonBiblical opinions of Christians and nonChristians whose beliefs and lifestyles we disagree with.

I still find it funny that this has become about Christianity when it was really about virgins who happen to be Christian. The average Christian in North America (and the world?) is not a virgin despite how Christianity has been used as the "model for virginity."
