Half of Americans believe U.S. Christians persecuted

RE: Half of Americans believe U.S. Christians persecuted
Who cares? they persicute everyone else in the world so why bother crying when it happens to them? I didn't study the bible very much, I just read it through once and said yeah right. But I do believe somewhere it says to treat others on how you wish them to treat you.

(May 14, 2011 at 1:34 am)Hunted By A Freak Wrote: Persecution is to harsh a word at this moment, but it won't always be the case. There's been a gradual decline in Christian values in the U.S. over the last several decades. The removal of prayer from school, the concealment of the Ten Commandments in our courts, Barrack's claim the U.S. is no longer a Christian nation etc. These are lite afflictions pointing ahead to something much worse. You don't have to look very hard to see that Christianity is persecuted throughout the globe, along with Judaism. The most persecuted faiths are the two that are rooted in the Book. It'll continue to get worse for Christians in the United States and to be honest I hope you could prove me wrong.

TRANSLATION: The decline of my cults power of this country upsets me. I think its wrong that I am not allowed to force children to abide by my cult beliefs. To hell with secular law, my cult beliefs should be the law, and the courts should enforce them. Because of this I am being persecuted, and if you atheists want to prove that you are as moral as you claim to be, then you should help my cult gain more power.[/translation]

I will laugh loudly and mockingly in your face while you shed those aligator tears. The persecutor crying persecution because people will not allow him to persecute. My sphincter clinches in sympathy for your troubles

If you want to know what REAL persecution is, then tell all of your friends, family, work buddies and your boss that you are an atheist. Then, and only then, will you see what that "christian love" is all about. Then again, you will not have the courage to do such a thing, because you know all to well were the REAL source of persecution is coming from.... Christians.

Christians in the UK claim persecution by the ever growing numbers who reject their and all religions.
I call that progress!

You mean like crashing and burning the world economy and then saying, "It's because all those poor people got loans. It's their fault!"

No. When I tie your ass to a stake and set it on fire THAT is persecution. Calling you a hypocrite is merely a fact.

Exactly..but they got loans with the upper branch of money loaners KNOWING they wer going to crash and then expecting legitimate property owners to see their value drop as well.

A very few people made billions off of this crash

Yep, because they're not allowed to parade around their crass, small minded bigotry in the name of their hateful desert deity.

The poor christians are just sooooo persecuted.

Boo fucken hoo.
