Honestly now! How many times in history have Christians done atrocious things to those who think/act/believe differently? When's the last time you heard of an atheist or agnostic going on a Christian killing spree? I hear so many Christians claim that they are the majority in the world, then turn around and say how persecuted they are. And in this country, conservative Christians try to legislate morality based on their own religious beliefs and sometimes they win! I don't understand how they can feel so persecuted when they're so good at trying to keep everyone else under their thumb.

Because the Bible's old testament aka the Torah was written by Jews who have ever had a victim complex...the new testament is full of Christians being persecuted. This creates a powerful subliminal victim complex in believers and the moment something un-christian happens they think they are being persecuted.
Personally the way they behave makes me think they SHOULD in reality be persecuted until they stop shoving their beliefs down every bodies throats.

Roman History explains it all about how the romans persecuted the christians like it was nothing wrong! but then Constantine the Great made Christianity a legal religion bc he saw a sword in the sky on a cross and it said "by this sign conquer" and so he did......then the ****** moron Theodisus or whatever made Christianity the ONLY acceptable religion and that didnt help our the christians cause at all bc faith in Jesus isnt supposed to be forced, you must choose it out of love

Read Eric Hoffer's "The True Believer."

Maybe you should review your history and step back a little.
Imagine those early century Christians that were severely persecuted.
Maybe not today.
