    The universe is pretty big. Robin shot up that church school (armchair psychology) because religion and the religulous told her that she was an abomination and not welcome. Then tRump’s go’ment did the same. I’m sure her peers did the same. Then without mental health access and weak gun laws and a thirst for revenge - then the MAGAts blame DEI.

        No, they think not being on a pedestal and having their unwarranted privileges slowly peeled away means they are “persecuted”.

        They also think it’s “persecution” when they cannot brainwash other people’s children while in captivity at public schools.

            Very true - I know some xtians just about lose their minds when a “world religions” class is discussed, or talking about “the” bible as literature.

            The notion that their chosen lifestyle were to be put on equal footing to other mythologies in an educational setting is just mind-boggling to them and absolutely enrages many of them.

            xtians: “We want religion back in the public schools!”

            normal Americans: “How about we teach kids about xtianity in the context of other religions? And have “the” bible included as part of Western literature?”

            xtians: “NOOOOOOO! NOT LIKE THAT!”

          They also think it’s persecution when other people aren’t forced to follow their religion, like when gay marriage is allowed

            100% this. They simply cannot comprehend that in a secular nation, their rules are for THEM and not for anyone else that isn’t in their little book club.

            But they don’t want the country to remain secular - they want to “fundamentally change America” (remember when the scary Blah man said that and how terrified they all were - more projection) so that the rules of their little book club are imposed on everyone else.

        It is a very common thing about them. More and more people can see it. If a regressive accuses someone of doing something. Its a sure bet they are doing or planning to do that something to others.

      Only some Christians. I don’t recall the Quakers ever having persecuted anyone. And the various Anabaptist spin-offs don’t persecute anyone but themselves.

      It’s the ones with power that get up to evil shit.

    Where was she in 2017 when white supremacists firebombed that mosque in Minneapolis? How about it being legal to forbid Jews from enrolling at medical schools in Minnesota until the 1950s?

    It’s kind of true. Look the deportations, they are getting mostly people from Christian countries like Mexico for instance. There is an attack on a Christians it seems

      Thoughts and prayers shall help, right?

      Edit: also, now is not the time for political action, we need at least 50 days from the last shooting, I think.

    Its not a religion. But the irrelegious, atheist and agnostic od the world are probably the largest most persecuted group. Fundamentalist Abrahamic relgions (sects of Christians. Muslims. Jews . Etc) view no religion as blasphemy

      Yes, this. Even with the percentage of xtians falling by about 1% per year, I saw that in polling, an awful lot of people still distrust nonbelievers.

      I cannot wait for xtianity to fall below 50%, but the cons are trying to stave that off by force if necessary, it seems.

        Those who think for themselves have never been all that well-liked.
