    Jesus is pretty cool. You show me a christian who follows jesus’ teachings, and I’ll have mad respect. You give me some dipshit doing the most anti-christlike shit imaginable, but with crosses all around, and I’ll make fun of him forever. Just a way of un-tarnishing the brand.

    And by “anti-xtian bias” he means, not properly privileging xtianity.

    That’s what these assholes complaining about xtian “persecution” ALWAYS mean. They hate to be ignored, too. Being told that their rules are FOR THEM and not anyone else in their book club, it absolutely infuriates them.

        X was used by early Christians in place of Christ. It is the first letter of Christ in Greek, and was used as a discreet way to indicate that someone is a Christian - back when Christians were ACTUALLY persecuted.

      It’s not as simple as leaving the country. Not everyone has a passport here. And the vast majority of Americans cannot afford to up end their lives and skip town let alone move to another country entirely. Then it comes to which country to move to. Most countries have requirements for visa entry. If you intend on staying permanently, you have to meet even stricter requirements like higher education, and even then, they won’t permit your visa if you aren’t in a field that would do good for their country. Some places may have a program similar to America’s H1B visa where you can get a job and work in that job to stay in the country but then your livelihood is at the mercy of a stranger in a foreign land letting you keep your job until you can convince the government to give you citizenship. You don’t just move to another country. And anyone who can just move to another country is exceedingly privileged.

      They have no idea what “bias” actually means, they just intend to weaponize it to be whatever they want. Like they do with every other word.
