I'm a religious Jew, and I agree completely with those who support
Brad.  Don't try to speak for an entire group of people when you
haven't checked with all of them first.  Better yet, just don't try to
speak for an entire group of people.

Furthermore, your comment about "white, christian males" reeks of
racism in and of itself.
