Now why is that?

I think its because christians are generally nicer people. You can take a poke and not go out into a bloody rampage. Amen to that. Merry Christmas.

I think it has to do with the fact that Christianity is the predominant religion in this country, or at least people CLAIM to be Christians. The major moral voice in America is Christianity. It's just like a kid that hates a parent or teacher telling them not to do something, or a thug on the street that gets hassled by the cops when he does something wrong. People don't like being told they are doing something wrong.

It's for that reason we see endless threads on the discussion of homosexuality or gay marriage. We get called all sorts of horrible names simply because we have the nerve to say "hey, wait a second....that's immoral"

That is your opinion, yes. But as we have established, your opinion on morality is not binding to anyone else. Thankfully.

Why is everyone looking to be such a victim in this world? To claim that "only Christians" are bashed is simply not true.

Because Jesus identifies satan as the"prince of this world". Satan obviously hates Christians, and does all he can to turn people against Christianity. Those who are not mature Christians are ignorant of his influences, and go along with what our culture says is correct. Jesus said the world would hate His followers- "the world" meaning our cultue and it's values. More often than not when I stand up for Christianity on this website, I get hate and sarcasm in response.

Maybe a moderator will provide an explanation. I haven't seen the thread in question, so I can't speak to what it contained. Merry Christmas to you, also.
