We have a rule about keeping it polite and friendly in the Introductions portion of the forum so people are a little handicapped when disagreeing with you here. If you'd like to start a thread about how and where Christians are persecuted, you might get more exact answers.
In the meantime, why don't you tell us something about yourself and why you are here.
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.

Actually it's why we have an introductions forum.

Threre is a very real persecution complex in most of the western world. The privileged churches in the UK, Germany etc do it, but it's particularly bad in the US where Christianity has public life in a strangle hold and its protagonists cry persecution! every time they cannot excert total control over people's lives. You are not those people, but it explains the often sarcastic reactions you'll get in the anglophone world if you complain about Christians being blamed for everything.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

I don't live in the US. Amazingly, not everyone does.

Au contraire comrade! So where are you from to start with!

Oh I don't know: age, gender, nationality, marital status, kids, denomination, politics, whatever. Or again, why you decided to join an atheist forum if you're sure we'll eat you. Surely there's a story there. Or maybe you just like to debate. We have a few Christians like that, not to mention a sweet pretty Catholic Lady who starts threads about poo.

I do, but this forum was started by a Brit and we are pretty international.
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.
