Not true.
I certainly don't blame Christians for everything.
I blame men for most of the problems in the world.
Oh, especially men with moustaches...

Yes. There are arseholses on both sides of the discussions.
I can't count the number of times I've been told I'm going to hell or that people shouldn't respond to my comments, however polite, simply because I'm an atheist.
Don't let a few bad encounters with atheists make you think we're all cut from the same cloth.

Nah. Now we blame muslims. Xtians are becoming an irrelevancy.

It's hard walking into any community where your opinion is in the minority. Trust me most atheists know this because on the topic of god, most atheists are quite used to this position. It's harder yet if you carry a chip on your shoulder.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Maybe? But quite as fashionable as Christian persecution complexes? I'm not so sure...

Christians are persecuted in several countries. They're being murdered in Syria, Iraq, Egypt and Pakistan.

So are Muslims, and atheists, and women, and others, in those same countries.

So then there's no "persecution complex" when the persecution is real.

I'm not claiming there's a persecution complex, in those countries, anyway.
There is a persecution complex among some sections of the Christian community in the west, however.
