Making Christians look bad
Interfaith

Muslims have in the past have complained how Mohammed has been portrayed.  Will they be as upset when a Christian is portrayed poorly at the expense of making them look good.

A Government-funded charity was at the centre of a row last night after a magazine it publishes for children appeared to depict Christians as Islamaphobes who regard Muslims as terrorists.

In a cartoon strip, a boy wearing a large cross around his neck is shown telling a friend that a smiling Muslim girl in a veil looks like a terrorist.

He later confronts her and shouts: ‘Hey, whatever your name is, what are you hiding under your turban?’

She replies that the garment is called a hijab and it is part of her religion, ‘like that cross you wear’.

 

The book later describes how the girl stands up to a bully and then compared to the 'Christian' person.

 

Owner of the magazine says the cross is just bling.  Where does she come up with that  when she obviously shows the person is a Christian.
