Yes it is. |
Seeing as how this survived a legal challenge I fail to see how the shirts (as described by JT) are close to crossing the line.
Let's not forget 2 Live Crew and thier unauthorized use of "Oh, Pretty Woman" was deemed legal as well.

****, people, all of you who are arguing against me are upset as to who I did this to, not what I did. As Wiggy himself more than implied, if I'd have done this to a homosexual organization, he would be on my side. If I had done this to Scientologists, nobody here would bat an eye. But because I did it to a Christian church the true fundamentalists on this board are willing to overlook the church's original sin (again, stealing imagery that is not theirs) to dump on me. |

"However, we found references to old-English definitions of "Caroline" as "joyful song", which to us was perfect: Wisdom, joy, and music is the foundation of our childs name, not gullibility, backwardness, and mysticism." |
I would say based on the above quotes that you qualify as a bigot, in other words you did this to vent your hatred towards Christianity.
Otherwise you'd report Imran for using a Star Wars avatar because, in your twisted world, he is a thief.
And I would not report gays if they modified or wore Sponge Bob pants. I'd rather spend my time working or doing something productive.

Not practicing what you preach: 
Not practicing the morality you wish to force on others:  |
You are entirely incorrect.
I don't give a damn about your recent conversion to the IP police.
I do give a damn about your attitude of intolerance towards 'zealots', 'those sort of people', 'the wrong element', 'some damn cult', etc.
It's despicable. It's as despicable as racist attitudes towards spics, or homophobic attitudes towards fags, or...
You are perfectly free to be a bigot, and I am perfectly free to tell you what I think of your attitude.
PS. I am not Christian, let alone a fundamentalist, so I am not offended by your attack on 'my' faith. I'm offended by your attitude towards people who disagree with you on matters of faith.
