I'm not very sympathetic to those Christians who cry discrimination, but to me this is an example of a symbol that could only be applied to christians without complete condemnation.
I think you're probobly right. Christianity is seen as the big fish of religion, therefore people are less defensive of it then other religions. I think it's also important to note the source of the fashions as well. The jeans, like the homeboy T-shirts and other things are coming from within countries that have a Christian following, not from an outside culture, such as an islamic country. Since it's people poking fun at their own societies, I think it's taken more lightly.
