MSBNC Promotes Crackpot Theory that Christianty Caused Economic Crash « NewsReal Blog: "In what is either a curious coincidence or a planned attack, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” spent two entire segments ridiculing Christians. Does one wonder why the leftist network categorically refuses to do the same with fundamentalist Muslims?

First, MSNBC host Willie Geist went after Governor Sarah Palin and Carrie Prejean. Especially the latter was singled out because of her outspoken religious views. For example, at the very moment Geist mentioned the word “Christianity,” his producers immediately showed a video of Prejean walking around in a bikini during a pageant. The message they tried to sent was clear: “she says she’s a Christian but she walks around like a slut. The hypocrite.”

Apparently unsure of whether the anti-Christianity agenda of his network was obvious enough to the viewer, he proceeded to selectively quote from an interview Prejean did with “Christianity Today” Magazine. The magazine asked her about breast implants and Christianity. While Prejean’s answer (“I don’t see anywhere in the Bible where it says you shouldn’t get breast implants”) was obviously stupid, it is rather noteworthy that Geist has yet to respond sarcastically (“that’s right Carrie, you show me where it says you can’t get breast implants!”) to silly remarks made by adherents to other religions.

Next, “Morning Joe” hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough tried to discredit famous preachers like Joel Osteen. They invited Hanna Rosin, editor of the leftist The Atlantic on the show to talk about her latest article called “Did Christianity Cause the Crash?” Yes, really – that is the name of the article."
