Bringing up the abortion clinic bombings was a an attempt to straw man and maneuver around my point, you just couldn't help yourself by jumping in on it.

All I'm doing is asking if your view is consistent.
I know plenty of Christians who would be upset about Jesus being depicted in insulting ways, you're upset about the
notion of criticising of Christianity
right now! lol
I know you read Brietbart and watch Fox News, surely you've heard about the "attack on Christmas." So what, some Muslims can't be mad about a vulgar cartoon depicting Mohammed, but some Christians can be upset because someone says "Happy Holidays" in the tolerant west? Christians in the west get upset about criticism or not respecting Christianity all the time. Religious people, in general, DO NOT LIKE when you criticize their religion.
And if we're talking about the west, why do you keep bringing up Sharia Law and other countries? You know there are other Christian-majority countries outside of the West that hold horrible beliefs right? Female castration? Turning children into sex slaves? Outlawing homosexuality? etc? From Christian nations.
You can find any example, from a beautiful one to a horrible one, of any religion. Pretending that Christianity has cornered the worldwide market on tolerance is naive.
