[QUOTE="ViaCrucis, post: 59067605, member: 293637"] A sense of humor goes a long way. The joke addresses the actual reality that privileged people--which historically have been white males in the West--have problems they are rather insignificant to actual problems. Such as having no clean water, no access to medicine, or the possibility that at any moment you and/or your family could be hauled off to God-knows-where for who-knows-what. It's linked to the larger point, though added for humorous flair, due to the fact that in the United States certain Christians have a proclivity for yelling "persecution" in situations that under no circumstance should any sane person regard as [I]persecution[/I]. Also, I'm white. With a Germanic heritage. Oh and I'm Protestant. Which makes me about as WASPy a guy as I can get without living in a nice suburb with a white picket fence and living in 1950. -CryptoLutheran [/QUOTE]
