Interesting post 64 – it’s good to see more radio presenters actually challenging callers’ bigotry. See how the woman is moved almost to tears when her cherished views are shown to be prejudiced and intolerant under the weight of the presenter’s humanity. She knows she’s wrong but can’t bring herself to admit it.
Others, when provoked through disagreement, become aggressive and insulting. It’s a common response when there’s psychological dissonance. The weakness of cherished beliefs is made clear and they find it deeply upsetting, but this sort of bigotry needs calling out.
Y’know, if Jesus were alive today, he wouldn’t be a Christian.
