I wasn't the one who made the claim that Christians are not being persecuted.
Atheists (and Agnostics to a degree) are persecuted by the religious more than Christians are, by the sheer quantity of haters, defamers, and attackers against either atheism or agnosticism.

Why did the atheist group HAVE to go to court when the christian groups had no problem handing out their support of the mythical?
That is the real travesty here, Jeffbase.
Would you be upset if some wiccan group distributed their fairy tales and your local church could not distribute your version of yours?
You mean like the travesty of the Christian baker who had to go to court and fight for their Constitutional right of freedom of religion? I consider that a bigger travesty than being able to set up a booth of lies, but of course your side sees no problem at all if it affects Christians.
The prayer station serves a purpose. Helping people. I'm quite certain that the reason station purpose is nothing more than an attack on Christianity rather than a sincere desire to teach people their beliefs.

I'm going to refuse to bake cakes to intolerant Christians because they didn't stand up against that guy. Evil doers one and all, they support each other's evil like any tribalist associators. I will not tolerate the intolerant. Why the government would support businesses like that such as intolerant Churches and intolerant bakers is beyond me, they deserve the same special treatment given to businesses that only serve the public if it's white-skinned. Where are the Christians that stand up against that guy? They aren't vocal enough because their denominations are corrupted by the enemies of humanity. They hide from us (and to a degree from themselves) the evils they commit in secret against the wider public.

Stop changing the meaning of the English language to justify using the wrong words to describe what happened, because you think doing so will dupe people into granting sympathy for your corrupt perspective. The reality is that the Christian bakers sought to withhold the service they offered to the public from certain members of the public. That's indefensible bigotry. Your inane attempt to label that transgression as anything worthy of respect, much less protection, is ridiculous. The more you persist in such delusion, the more your comments will lose credibility in the eyes of reasonable people who realize the distortion and deception you're committing.
And they can't help people with a prayer station at their church because.........?
Probably, not enough people outside the forced family are going to churches, in their view. Inserting themselves into the government-sponsored public and the government has always been the corruption the corrupt have sought. And yes, the government includes that section called The People. There is hardly any other way to get tax-exception support that religions usually rely on. If giving people a strong community center and center for moral teachings is so important, then secular centers should be just as supported and "unimcumbered" as Religious places. But people have a thirst and lust to insert themselves as government propaganda.

Big difference. The Christian baker lost in a court of law because of what he was doing was unconstitutional. The atheist group won, because they had the constitution on their side.
You DO believe in your Constitution don't you?
Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Zoroastrians all belief in unprovable myths. You know, like fairy tales. Actually, many fairy tales have better lessons in them than some of the myths perpetuated by the fervent adherents of the religious myths

I'm not sure how talking to yourself about an imaginary friend is helpful. Perhaps if those people were taught meditation, there may be something said to that. At least some stress levels may subside.

Once again you pull an unrelated case into the debate to deflect the question at hand . Answer the question. Does it bother you or not?
