Stop calling it the Jesus Phone!
I don't often use PocketMojo to proselytise or rant but I'm compelled to do so today. iPhone 3G reviews are starting to flow now that the NDA has lapsed and the phrase "Jesus Phone" is being thrown around as if it isn't highly offensive and blasphemous.
If you're a journalist, blogger or any other commentor on the iPhone:
STOP CALLING THE IPHONE THE "JESUS PHONE"
Would you call it the "Allah Phone" or "Buddha Phone"? It seems that mocking Christianity is OK but other religions are off limits. We may not all share the same beliefs but that's not an excuse to mock the beleifs of others.
In case you missed it the first time:
STOP CALLING THE IPHONE THE "JESUS PHONE"
Thanks

I have to disagree. There is no way anyone would patently show such public disrespect for a central tenet for any other religion other than Christianity (except, perhaps for Scientology).
Did you see the images and headlines used by The Age and SMH? They were blasphemous and highly offensive. They deliberately took an important element of my faith and abused them. On principle, I will not link or even read those stories.
No, sorry I did not see it, IMO mainstream media is so controlled that I don't bother reading it. I prefer reading interesting opinion in the blogs.
