Christians “Should be Eradicated”: Researchers Document Anti-Christian Agenda Among Elite
The New American ^ | 2/4/2016 | Selwyn Duke

Posted on 02/10/2016 6:53:33 AM PST by Roman_War_Criminal

A student is punished for refusing to "stomp on Jesus," a Christian baker faces a year in jail for refusing to cater faux marriages, two men are arrested for reading the Bible aloud near a government building, a school "purges" Christian works from its library. Critics asserting the existence of an institutional anti-Christian bias, and a resultant war on the faith, have often been labeled paranoid. But now two University of North Texas sociologists have produced research showing that just such an agenda exists — among America’s most powerful people.

Professors George Yancey and David Williamson shared their findings in their newly released book So Many Christians, So Few Lions: Is There Christianophobia in the United States? The researchers say that while Christianophobia — which the sociologists define as "unreasonable hatred or fear of Christians" — isn’t common among common people, it does characterize those in the upper echelons of American society. It's intense, too. The book's title was apparently inspired by elitist interviewees lamenting how there were "so few lions," referencing the Roman Empire's practice of throwing Christians into an arena to be slaughtered by the wild cats. One respondent even remarked that Christians "should be eradicated without hesitation or remorse."

The Knights of Columbus. The sword is ceremonial. The Glock is real!

What is it about the Bible, a book of "myths and fables" that frightens those in power so much?

Antiochus IV Epiphanes sent his troops in to destroy the Jews and their book of "myths and fables".

The Caesars released the Legions of Rome to destroy the Jews, Christians and their book of "myths and fables".

The Arabs rolled out of Arabia destroying the Jews and Christian's book of "myths and fables", and tried to replace it with their own. This fight is still going on today.

And when men again became more educated there was an attempt to translate it into the common language of the people, and the battle lines were drawn between those in power and the common folk over a book of "myths and fables".

Yet, men stood up and gave their lives to protect that book of "myths and fables" so future generations could read it and make up their own mind.

WHAT book is the Atheist willing to stand up and give his life to protect? Marx? Ingersoll? Origin of the Species?

Just what is in that book of "myths and fables" that has terrified Kings and rulers for over 2300 years?

Maybe it is more than just a book of "myths and fables". Read it and find out!

Exactly, and it’s tragic that they don’t see the irony.

Brilliant Post!

You see there is a major spiritual element to the hatred of Judeo-Christianity that has lingered since basically the beginning of time. It’s not even close to a coincidence that they hate both Israel, Christians and Jews.

Egyptians, Philistines, Babylonians, Assyrians, Greeks, Romans, Holy Roman Empires, Communists, Nazis, and Modern Liberal Marxists all have the same exact goal, eradication of Believers in a Holy God.

I wonder if somebody can hit them with a lawsuit since you know well that nothing pertaining to Islam will be censored?

NASA exists under Obama for the purpose of making muslims feel good about themselves.

In July of 2010, NASA chief Charles Bolden said in an interview with Al-Jazeera,

"When I became the NASA administrator, (President Obama) charged me with three things. One, he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math; he wanted me to expand our international relationships; and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math and engineering."

Former NASA chief Michael Griffin, who headed the space agency during George W. Bushs second term, called the Muslim outreach initiative a perversion of the mission of NASA:

He said, NASA was chartered by the 1958 Space Act to develop the arts and sciences of flight in the atmosphere and in space and to go where those technologies will allow us to go. Thats what NASA does for the country. It is a perversion of NASAs purpose to conduct activities in order to make the Muslim world feel good about its contributions to science and mathematics.

Excellent comment!

The word of God is powerful - even nonbelievers know it.
