This document discusses the portrayal of Christianity in television shows, particularly soap operas. It argues that Christianity is often ridiculed or portrayed negatively, while other religions like Islam are not criticized in the same way. Specifically, it summarizes recent storylines in the soap operas Hollyoaks and Coronation Street that depicted religious characters or beliefs in an unflattering or mocking manner. The author believes this shows a lack of courage on the part of television writers, who are only willing to criticize Christianity and not other religions that may retaliate against negative portrayals.
