DP1, which NPR program attacks Christianity and Catholicism daily? If you were a true listener, you would know that such only happens once a week, on Tuesdays.

Nice to see the wingnuts migrating over from their racist boards. Like the Bible doesn't say things Christians would rather avoid (death penalty for eating a shrimp, anyone?) or generalized Islamaphobia and ridiculous, fact-free attacks on NPR.

This guy is hilarious and Brooke did a great job of interviewing him. But, you know, racists gotta hate. It's their raison d'etre.

Okay..., first of all, I'm a big fan of both Colbert and Stewart so my political stance is not really an issue here..., at least as far as I'm concerned. By extension, I'm generally supportive of all of the people on both shows. Mandvi's ethnicity is not an issue...BUT !!! (AHHhhhh, there's the 'ever present' "BUT"...) But..., I'd often heard it claimed that in Islam it's alright to lie to the infidels and non-believers..., so I looked it up...; given that it IS indeed alright according to the Koran to lie to us infidels..., does that mean one can never believe one word of what any person of even the slightest Muslim influence utters?

Asif Mandvi is very smart and has a good gift of the gab as one would say, if you grew up in India. Putting things in a funny way is perfect when the subject is ugly.
Unfortunately, most Americans forgot history and geography after school and never replenished it. So Cloth heads... are all Muslims. People from India are all taxi drivers, owners of 711, doctors, nurses, bollywood and now Google heads. Imagine a country as vast as India with only these professions, and functioning !!
Hmm maybe, that could be a movie, for example called American's India. ... So there is an India where Indians only perform the jobs that Americans think we can and all the other professions are outsourced.. ex.. police are Israelis, cooks are Chinese, Americans are school bus drivers, English are teachers, Poles are Electricians, people from Malta are building supers. Branding by what a country does best. ASif.. you are welcome to run with this and you can be Prime minister!!
Great interview Brook.

Of course an interview with Aasif Mandvi has to gravitate to a sympathetic conversation involving Islam and so called " Islam-o phobia ", when pi$$ing on Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular on a daily basis on NPR is not only acceptable but a requisite.
