Indeed it has. Unless Santorum thinks that demanding pastors’ sermons/“speeches” and threatening pastors that don’t perform gay “marriage” with jail time and four-figure fines is not persecution?
And it’s not that the left is going after Christians BECAUSE of their support of homos.
They support homos as an EXCUSE to use the law to persecute Christians.
Our current government is testing the waters. They are poking us with sticks to get a reaction. They are slowly poisoning the minds of children. This has all been done before. My entire life of the past almost 51 years has been this slow erosion of culture and religion.
Persecution is when they actually lock the pastors up like they do in Iran. Persecution is when they start executing pastors and others for what they believe and yes I do think they will go that far.
They have been slowly molding the children of this country. They have kids using homework assignments to inform on their parents about, drugs and weapons in the homes as well as racism. The left is the only bunch of people who will listen to every word spoken by an irrational child yet will not listen to one word of a learned adult who disagrees with them.
They have the public school kids. They don't need a daddy because the government will take care of them. You don't need mommy to fix you a breakfast or lunch, because they don't know what's best for you, the government will take care of it. The government tells women not to stay home with kids, they'll take care of it. Put the kid in daycare, the government subsidizes daycare and funds Head start. Get pregnant? Don't worry 13 year old girl the government will take care of it. Don't worry about your parents if they yell at you we will lock them up. I could go on.
But here is the part that scares them. Home schoolers and religious schools other than Muslim. They can't get to your kids. They want those kids. "Takes a Village", that was a direct threat. Either we back down or they are coming, it is just a matter of time.
