I especially loved the part where she claimed Jesus was the founder of Christianity, when it was actually Peter.

Zealots indeed...

Because it is a negative take on Jesus and Christianity to a degree, liberals and atheists everywhere fall over themselves promoting it.
What does he say that's negative about Jesus?

Watch the video. It seemed like all the interviewer was concerned with is why a Muslim is interested in the founder of Christianity.

Is This The Most Embarrassing Interview Fox News Has Ever Done
honestly, the guy comes off as a A-hole.

Why do people watch this garbage?
From the comments I've read here I'd say your talking to the wind, since it seems like no one is defending the idiot who did interview

A question I ask myself and those around me every time I'm trapped in a waiting room or lobby with the television tuned in to this crap. Last week it was The View at the clinic.

Lies and more lies. Christians are not taught to hate at all, they are taught that we are all children of God, and that we are all imperfect. They are also taught free will. You don't force any of your beliefs on them, and they won't force theirs on you. Sounds fair to me.
You are saying that there are no women Christians, no minority or democrat Christians! You have no clue what you are talking about. You are flaming!

This is about a biased interview by Fox, stick to the topic.

To be fair, all religions promote xenophobia, through one smokescreen or another.
Youre assuming that people dont ever go against their own interests. If that were true the modern GOP wouldnt exist.
