Are Christians Being Persecuted in America?

Because Jesus Christ is the Truth, and Islam is not. People prefer to believe Satan’s lies.

[Poison Pill]

Define persecution

[No name given]

They also love their sins more than Jesus Christ.

[Vaduz]

When Muslims kill it’s in the name of Allah guess what party wants a Army of their own.

[GingisK]

Because Muslims are thought to be their friends. Once the Muslims reach critical mass, the liberals will be in for a terrible surprise.

Let’s see a Christian try to get a job as a newscaster, actor, teacher in a big city, a management job in Oregon State government. Won’t happen.

It is very strange to me how as you say the younger generation are so pushy about all the LBGtq etc stuff. If I even dare to mention that the problem is mental illness, then I am met with eye rolls and condemnation. I don’t care, I still tell them that there is right and there is wrong, that there is good and there is evil. I am sorry that the scales are tightly glued to their eyes as I raised them as Christians. I tell them that I personally don’t care how people choose to live their lives, but I don’t have to be on board with it and pretend like it’s normal.

What was the first institution or gathering place that was shut down immediately when lock-downs were mandated?

[cuz1961]

Americans made “diversity” and “multiculturalism” the national religion instead of Christianity, so do not be surprised at the consequences of worshipping
a
false idol.

Finally.

The rub of the matter.

Regressives are , well, regressing back to Polytheism.

Not just worshiping 1 old god, but ALL the old gods.

A “ diversity” of idols one might say.

Are your eye rollers only females by any chance?

[wardaddy]

Yes

No like earlier days but nonetheless

"These are big, historic decisions and they don't square with a narrative of diminishing religious liberty for Christians."

These Supreme Court decisions were outliers, running against the major trends of American society. That is obvious from the huge outcry they provoked on the left, with immediate pushback on many fronts.

On a day to day basis, Christianity is being marginalized and even criminalized. Christian institutions often have to go to court to protect their right to maintain doctrinal and moral authority within their own walls.

Christian parents see public schools increasingly forcing pagan notions of sexuality on their young children, and this trend is spreading like wildfire. The LGBTQ+ agenda is the main weapon being used against Christians, and - along with the vax mandates and CRT - is being used to drive Christians out of our institutions, now including the military.

It is little consolation that Christians aren't (yet) facing the daily threat of murder as in some Muslim, Hindu, and communist areas, but that sort of persecution is not unknown in the West, including Spain, Mexico, and France within recent centuries.

"It is very strange to me how as you say the younger generation are so pushy about all the LBGtq etc stuff.""

Why do you say it's "strange to say" when you are saying the same thing about your own kids?

[Nea Wood]

I’ve heard atheists say, “Dang, I’m not a Christian, but they sure are picking on the Christians.” When even atheists notice it and think it’s wrong, something is going on.

Satan is overplaying his hand.

Americans are being persecuted in America.

Similar analogy:
Gas prices increased $4.10 under Biden, but decreased $0.60 this month. That is a great improvement.

[dandiegirl]

Yes.. haha.

[dandiegirl]

I was a little unclear as I was agreeing with you that it’s very strange to me how they act etc. I didn’t articulate it well.

[madison10]

Same here. I was wondering if there were male wokebots. That is why I asked. Four nieces are wokebots, my husband’s and my side, except one who is a pastor’s wife and daughter of a pastor. Other two are still ypunger teens and hopefully will not get infected. Nephew is super conservative.

I am thinking of culling the will, what there is of it. The superior attitude infuriates me.
