Double Standard at the NYT

New York Times, Front Page, September 12, 2001

The New York Times ran a very anti-Christian ad recently that said:

It's Time to Quit the Catholic Church
“Why put up with an institution that won’t put up with women priests, which excludes half of humanity. Why send your children to parochial schools to be indoctrinated into the next generation of obedient donors and voters? Can’t you see how misplaced your loyalty is after two decades of sex scandals involving preying priests, church complicity, collusion and coverup going all the way to the top. Apparently, you’re like the battered woman who, after being beaten down every Sunday, feels she has no place else to go.”

Then, they refused to run this ad, submitted by Pamela Geller of AtlasShrugs.com:

It's Time to Quit Islam
“Why put up with an institution that dehumanizes women and non-Muslims – fully 9/10ths of humanity? Ask your imam: Does he support Hamas? Hizb’Allah? The destruction of Israel? Does he condemn the slaughter of Christians in Egypt, Pakistan, Nigeria, Iraq, etc. Does he vocally denounce Islamic killings, FGM, forced marriages, child marriage, polygamy? As a ‘moderate” Muslim you tell yourself and the world that you have chucked out the violent doctrine and hateful, oppressive decrees of your religion, and yet you keep identifying with the ideology that threatens liberty for women and menaces freedom by slaughtering, oppressing and subjugating non-Muslims."

I won't even include the NYT's BS reason for accepting one but not the other since it's obvious they are adhering to a double standard wherein it's OK to criticize Christianity, but Islam is off limits.
