"No person had less to do with this award than Jesus. Can you believe this sh@#? Hell has frozen over. Suck it, Jesus, this award is my god now."
In the same vain of Don Imus or Keith Richards (both having said offensive things), Kathy Griffin said the above, offending Christians everywhere. The difference is that while Don and Keith got into trouble for their offensive statements, Kathy won't because such statements against faith are tolerated as "jokes."
Look at Isaiah Washington. He made an anti-gay remark backstage or wherever and it might have ruined his career. Kathy Griffin offends 85% of the population (believers) and doesn't get in trouble at all. It's a pathetic double-edged sword isn't it?
Bill Donahue from the Catholic League appeared on CNN.com where he attempted to argue for this. I'm not sure if he got a point across other than what was stated above, but he did bring to light a lie from Kathy's publicists that states that she's a Catholic. She isn't. She's a self-proclaimed "militant atheist."
Honestly, I'm not surprised. Why should we be? Christ's church is the persecuted church. It always has been and always will be until the end of days. We shouldn't despair though, we should embrace the path we've chosen, the cross we bare.
