Is this a thread about bashing Palin ... or a thread about bashing Christians? If its about bashing Christians, then let's start a thread about bashing African-Americans, Hispanics, Asians, Women, the elderly or the infirmed. Or, don't you see the parallels?

Actually, there aren't any parallels.
If the majority group gets bashed, that's one of the by-products of being the majority group. Counterbalancing forces are needed to have some kind of equilibrium.
Bashing the minority groups, ESPECIALLY if you are a member of the majority group, is particularly distasteful and a bit rude.
If you are in the majority group, you gotta suck it up. You are enjoying the rewards of the majority group whether you've asked for those benefits and rewards or not.
Full disclosure: I am in the majority group in your particular example.
