    Jakes states that “the issue for us is to make sure that we’re not discriminated against because we have Christian values.” So let me get this straight, because maybe I’m reading it wrong: in context, it sounds like he’s playing the I’m-a-Christian-being-discriminated-against card if Christians aren’t a target of corporate marketing?

    I guess I don’t really want corporations targeting me based on my faith.
