There isn't much compassion on either side of this issue.
The one thing Jesus taught above all else was compassion for others. Christian or not, maybe it's time we all looked at ourselves and started giving each other some slack.
The vast, vast majority of citizens of the USA self-identify as Christian.
Aside from not being able to drive down any six-block area in any town in the nation without seeing at least one church, and leaving aside the countless mega-churches that hold thousands of congregants, Christians in this country have their own television networks, radio stations, retail chains, clothing lines, radio stations, publishing companies, advertising firms, etc., etc.
And that's as it should be. This is a free country and Chistians should be free to have their own businesses, engage in capitalism and the pursuit of filthy lucre, and so on, ust like any other group.
But the idea that Christians are somehow marginalized, mistreated, or discriminated against in the USA is absolutely ludicrous. This is just martyr complex horse hockey.
It's disturbing how the mainstream media have practically declared war against a certain group of peaceful Americans. If they slandered Jews or Muslims in the same manner as they do Christians would that be acceptable? Why the double-standard?
I have been lobbying for years for all Christians to be forced to pay a Christianity Tax of 50% of their income in order to repay the victims of the crusades. Someday the Democrats will be ballsy enough to accept this terrific policy.
You can insult Christians but not Muslims.
You can insult the right wing but not the left wing.
You can insult family values types but not homosexuals.
You can insult men but not women.
You can insult whites but not blacks.
You can insult Western culture but not Third World culture.
You can insult gun rights but not abortion rights.
You can insult Fox News but not Think Progress.
You can insult Rush Limbaugh but not Jon Stewart.
the list goes on and on...
Sheesh. What a lot of butthurt. Whine, gripe, moan, whine...
Turn the above BS around and it is 100% equally true and valid of the neocons/rightwingers:
You can insult Muslims but not Christians.
You can insult the left wing but not the right wing.
You can insult homosexuals but not family values types.
You can insult women but not men.
You can insult blacks but not whites.
You can insult Third World culture but not Western culture.
You can insult abortion rights but not gun rights.
You can insult Think Progress but not Fox News.
You can insult Jon Stewart but not Rush Limbaugh.
the list goes on and on...
See how that works? In other words, a bunch of baseless nonsense pulled from your behind and presented as fact.

Attack on Christianity... Doesn't the bible warn of this in the end times?
Never before in American history have Christians experienced being hated for following Jesus Christ as they are today.
While the war on Christianity in America and persecution of Christians has not yet reached the feverish pitch of persecution as it has in other parts of the world, there is a battle being waged. There is still a Constitution in America that protects them and allows them to freely practice their faith. But, broiling beneath the surface, the same hatred of God that exists in other parts of the world is festering in all our institutions. Slowly, methodically, and incrementally the anti-God forces are working to remove that Constitutional barrier and replace it with the 10 Planks of Communism.
It is important to recognize that those engaged in the war on Christianity, working for the dissolution of our society and breakdown of the family have a spiritual agenda. They are not merely attempting to dismantle the historic cultural values of this nation and move us toward a new world order. They also want to destroy Christianity and Bible-based religion. It is a clear part of their agenda, and they have already moved a long way in that direction.
