But if a person dares to talk about the principles of Christianity, they are shouted down. Heaven forbid they do it in school though, then the entire weight of the doj will come after them for a hate crime. Or if a company should decide to not do business with someone because of religious beliefs, then their rights are now worth nothing. So yes, there is persecution of the Christians.

Ok, so you are an atheist?


To add another axis, I’m an agnostic atheist (no active belief in a god, but don’t actively disbelieve or believe that a lack of gods could be definitively proven), but in short, yes.

Also, your entire basis for them allowing casinos to operate was that they were a source of tax revenue. But the states have never actually cared about whether they have the funding for something. So that argument has no legitimacy.


Again, you’re simply incorrect. I’m not saying they don’t spend like drunken sailors, but they do care about tax revenue.

So you are laughing at what you posted? I typically enjoy humor across a broad spectrum but fail to see anything at all funny in your posts... Guess you are just way too intelligent and your humor is so far above my level of understanding.


Nope. The laughing emote is intended to convey a lighthearted and jovial tone of voice.

Man, this internetting thing is hard. I should maybe read a book about it or something.

See how dry that sounded? What tone did I intend? The world may never know…

Da trannies and gays that support them have low self esteem. They desperately want everyone on their level, which can't ever happen.

And how many headlines do you think I could find saying that all Democrats/liberals/progressives/homosexuals/transsexuals/etc are either pedophiles or groomers for pedophiles?


From say op-eds in the biggest media outlets in the nation/world? Hardly any.

You're correct, Christians have NEVER had to deal with any persecution.

You're serious, aren't you? Is your position about "evening the score"? "Revenge"? Historical "Equity" of result? Man, you ARE "Woke", aren't you?

No, you don't get it. AT ALL. But *I* get it; you have been fed lies and been indoctrinated. And now you have an agenda and position that's not too popular with sane people OR especially with God.

Christians (who NEVER "groomed" or urged anyone else to specifically sin and to satisfy their own perverted urges) weren't "criticized in the public square"; they were merely tossed into Coliseums for "entertainment" of Pagans -- and torn to bloody pieces for a couple hundred years.

And when they weren't and ripped apart...er, I mean "criticized" for Pagan "entertainment value", mobs chased them down and murdered them in cold blood. The Biblical Saul/Paul of Tarsus gave his own testimony -- he was one of them.

quote:

That doesn’t mean you’re [Christians] being persecuted against. Just means that your beliefs are no longer being placed on a pedestal.


Are you at all familiar with the ideals for living as taught as 'The Sermon on the Mount' by Jesus Christ? His teachings?

IF the beliefs OR message of Jesus Christ -- and with specificity, His Sermon on the Mount lesson or His teaching are NOT "put on a pedestal", what beliefs, credo pr philosophy would you have humanity replace His wisdom with?

Hey -- you're the Pagan apologist who stuck his/her/it's neck out and made the assertion.

Rescinding your claim now?

So...

Is your Woke position about "evening the score"? "Revenge"? Historical "Equity" of result?

Or...ALL THREE?

I’m not rescinding anything. The context for this thread has always been the United States. If you asked me whether Christians are currently discriminated against around the world, right this second, I would answer yes without hesitation. That’s just not relevant to the subject at hand.

I also find it interesting that black and gay folk are supposed to “get over” horrifying discrimination from within the last century, but you’re citing as relevant discrimination of Christians from over 1,500 years ago.
