...persecuted...See details? She wrote that "Christians are actually being persecuted right now mostly because of abortion and gay marriage."
Um, no. Christians were persecuted when they were rounded up in the first century and forced to face lions and be torn apart in front of onlookers. People saying that they support gay marriage or abortion does not equal persecution.
I think there is nothing wrong with having faith or following a religion, but come on, you don't need to over-dramatize!
Anyone agree?
So some of you are ridiculing and putting down Christians in your answers, and some of you are saying the same thing about atheists...So what did I do? I gave you thumbs-down, but I'm not saying you're persecuting anyone! Persecuting means action, like deliberately doing harm to you physically, financially, etc. NOT saying some stupid words that you can just ignore if you choose to!
And okay, some Christians may indeed be getting persecuted somewhere in the world, but again, it has nothing to do with the Rhetoric about gay marriage or abortion!
