A Question for Thesists

Question not addressed to me, but I'll answer.

1) What the hell is a member of pop culture? (Maybe this was defined earlier in the thread, but I just skimmed.)
2) To respond to this question: do you honestly believe it is easier to be a Christian, than [a non-Christian]?  Answer: it depends.

But, the real question:

3) Do you honestly believe it is easier to be a Christian [in the United States], than [a non-Christian in the United States]?

Yes. Unequivocally, yes. You have free reign to practice your religion, you're the large majority, AND you get the psychological comfort of "knowing" there's someone watching out for you, and that dying isn't really the end, and that you're important and the universe was created for you (rather than having to come up with your own meaning as an insignificant part of a cold, uncaring universe), and that the consequences of things on earth aren't really that great, because the end goal is so much bigger than this. 

Everyone, Christian or not, American or not, has their own problems. But, as far as we go: yes, it is much, much easier to be a Christian in America than not.

Don't worry, my friend.  If this be the end, then so shall it be.
