If I say Christians are stupid for believing in the Bible instead of science, and Christianity is a bloody religion because of the crusades, it's not considered particularly offensive.
If I say Muslims consider the rest of us infidels and that their religion contains a lot of violent teachings, - no big deal.
If I say scientologists are wacked for believing in Xenu the galactic emperor and that they brainwash people and aren't even a "real" religion - yawn.
If I say Hindu's are misguided for that whole cast system and for considering cows sacred - no big deal.
But if I pull a "Mel" and say Jews are responsible for all of the wars - game over man! Media crucifiction, career suicide.
Why the difference.
