Christianity isn't a "race," but if you meant to say bigotry then the answer is yes.

I admire someone who has true beliefs. I enjoy debating with someone or simply listening (or reading) to their logic. It is usually based upon something that is intangible and unproveable, but I respect them none the less. If, however, they use their logic or twist their faith to prove something (in their own mind) that harms others or they determine that other beliefs are false and the ones following this (false) belief must be educated to a "true" belief...I have much less respect for them. I have not heard a Buddist or other Eastern religion do this...they seem to invite participation without guilt or pressure to join. I have heard twisted logic from both Christianity and Islam....they seem bent on each other's destruction....It surely vexes me to hear American television evangelists take sides in any conflict or tell their followers to vote on the side of any political party....It's not rascist of me to believe that the words of a few with a wide audience are twisting the views of the population to further their own ends...I hear many who consider themselves Christians calling for violence...so don't blame others for the problems caused by Christians themselves...is it any wonder that a person like me is unwilling to give any statements by Christians the benefit of the doubt when so many are twisting it and abusing it. Why does a Christian need to even say anything about being Christian in terms of morality of humanity...I certainly don't really care to debate your religion with you or hear about it at all as a factor in daily events or conversation....I place no value in your religion, only in you devotion to it as a matter of respect to you.

Christians are targeted by bigots, yes. It's not called racism, though.
Christmas is just a bastardized replacement for the old Roman Saturnalia. Go read your history, my friend. The church instituted Christmas in order to combat the orgies and general "immoral" fun the public was enjoying..

Christian isn't as race. There is plenty of religious bigotry from Muslims & atheists aimed at Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists & everyone else.

No but Muslims are the target of racism from Christians. How did that happen?

Not in any systematic way.
They just like to feel persecuted, and are experts at manipulating public opinion so that they look like the victims.

Christians face bigotry just like all religions. It's been like that in the past, present and will continue in the future.

Christians have always been targeted by bigots from "other" faiths and atheists as well.
