Since when isn't it politically correct to mock Christianity? I must not have gotten the memo.

IT - Here's the test for political correctness: have someone work in an office hang this cartoon in their cubicle. If HR calls within 3 days, its not politically correct. ;)

It is interesting to note that Christians created this nation in which Christianity, the prevalent religious faith CAN be mocked.

Yep. Good ol' boy Down-Home Jon... plain as folks. :lol:

Come listen to a story 'bout a man named Jon
Could barely afford the Bosie he played on
Then one day he was looking at some stocks
And up on the screen popped a buncha bollocks...

Sub-prime mortgages that is - hedge funds, all bundled up-like

Well the next thing y'know ol' Jon's a billionaire
His lawyers said 'Jon, move AWAY from THERE!'
Said 'Belize is the place y'oughta be'
'Cause that's where the Feds'll never get a penny...'

That cartoon is more like rude, vulgar or trashy, not really politically incorrect.

HR usually won't argue with rude, vulgar or trashy.

If through some sort of bizarre twist of fate you have someone in HR who is well-mannered and has a backbone they might give you a call.

"Politically Incorrect" is relative.

Colloquially, it means "things that others are offended by but not me".


(ps - the cartoon is fcuking hilarious ;) )

You can define "Politically Incorrect" to suit your taste.

And hilarious is certainly in the eye of the beholder.

However, rude, vulgar or trashy, remain appropriate descriptions of the cartoon.

And your ps.

Now here's something that's politically correct, but vulgar - and it still made me laugh like heck. I guess I just can't escape that adolscent humor. Blame it on my brother - he's the one who keeps sending me such carp. :biggrin:

I know, I know. In angry-white-manville, politically incorrect means 'jokes about blacks and gays'.

In my circles, those are considered rude, trashy and, well, low class.


Hence the point about subjectivity.

Well, rude, vulgar, trashy, low-class, political incorrectness, and hilarity are not mutually exclusive. ;)

I know of no HR folks who would tolerate that cartoon publicly displayed. Ran it by a couple friends in the field and they both said the person who posted that cartoon would be doing their career some damage and would be not only instructed to take it down but counseled and possibly reprimanded.

Great! This supports jon-nyc's original characterization of the cartoon as politically incorrect, and obliterates ivorythumper's assertion that the cartoon is not politically incorrect. :yesgrin:
