The man was correct. It's not even close. Those who are now feigning moral indignation over a congresswoman's use of social media will find that heresy. That makes it true. In the video, a man with a guitar stands in the aisle of a plane singing a Christian worship song. Some passengers seem to ignore the commotion, while others seem annoyed. A boy plugs his ears. It all moved a Muslim who was born in Africa to write: "I think my family and I should have a prayer session next time I am on a plane." How do you think it will end? In a post-9/11 world, it would end with them being tackled to the floor and duct taped to their chairs as the pilot radioed ahead to the nearest airfield requesting permission for an emergency landing. The obvious irrefutability of that point notwithstanding, conservative critics had a field day with it. Vernon Jones, a Republican congressional candidate in Georgia, asked, "Why do you hate Christians?" If she wants a country where Christians aren't allowed to pray in public, she should go back to her country. It was an accident of timing that gave her a front-row seat to this nation's descent into Islamophobic bigotry. If this episode proves that conservatism is still a doctrine of hate, it also raises a question of entitlement, of who gets to do what in the public square. Take religion out of it for a second. A group of people are having a rap battle in the aisle of a plane. Imagine a couple arguing about infidelity or infertility. A group of actors are performing a scene from Shakespeare. Imagine a scenario in which a group of people are held captive to a performance they did not choose and cannot escape. One word suggests itself with clarity. It was rude. That is what every principal would be in those scenarios. The singers on that plane were the same. They never questioned if they had the right to take hostages in the public square, never stopped to think that there might be other religions. The experience is unlikely to bring any of those people to Christ. It probably drove the other way. The issue of a double standard against Muslims was the only issue that was brought up in the post. Being at home in every setting, of never having to ask permission, is the larger issue. Those passengers were forced to sit through the worship service. The singers intended it to be a show of their faith. It was also a show of their entitlement. The boys should be charged with animal abuse.
