What are some good ways to help end the persecution of Christians in the United Sates?

Answer 1

There is no persecution of Christians in the United States, just like there is no "war" on Christmas. There is, however, the "Culture War," which is the effort of some of the more extreme Fundamentalist Evangelical Christians (not all Christians, just certain "FEC's") to completely dominate the culture and drive out all competing influences -- including more liberal Christian sects, and Christian denominations that they disagree with such as Catholics, Mormons, and Jehovah's Witnesses. When those of us who are not FEC's stand up for our rights, and oppose them, we are accused of "persecuting Christians."

But I am not persecuting Christians when I fight back in the Culture War. I am not persecuting Christians when I stand up for Gay Rights, abortion rights, Evolution in the classroom, freedom of ALL religions, and separation of Church and State. I oppose the "culture war" agenda of the Religious Right for the same reason I would oppose Sharia Law in the United States -- because I would support and defend the rights of all people regardless of their religion, and because I support the freedom of all religions. To allow one extreme version of one religion to dominate the law, politics, and culture of the United States is to undermine the very freedoms our founders fought for.

So, no, I'm not persecuting you. I'm standing up to you.

Answer 2

I consider any maliciousness aimed at a person because of that person's faith to be persecution. There's religious persecution of people of other faiths, by the way. And, there are obviously degrees of persecution. I was once harassed for months at a job as a auto mechanic because I didn't go along with sexual jokes and other smutty talk. i finally answered cleverly, embarrassing the harasser and he quit.

Answer 3

Expose the hate mongers who are no better than Nazis when they make suggestions about killing people and barbecuing them. Yes I can see why these people think they are so much more evolved than Christians. In my country (Canada) that is considered a hate crime. And when they say they're only joking there's nothing amusing about promoting hate. The persecution of the jews in Germany started mildly at first and when no one opposed it grew beyond anyones wildest imagination.

Answer 4

show them that there way of doing things are wrong and that's why there persecuted if they would stop belittling and condemning others because there not christians and have a different way of thinking not saying their religion is wrong just that they should mind their own da mn business stay out of government and shcool affairs i mean come on people are you really going to let a RELIGION tell you how to dress, how to talk, what to watch, what to read there no longer the majority and they should stop trying to control every thing like nazis

Answer 5

I think the last time Christians were persecuted was in Rome about 2000 years ago!
Since that time they have been the persecutors, (Hitler was a Christian)!
What When and Where were Christians persecuted in USA??

Answer 6

Passing the law so that no individual, company or organization, public or private, that is not afiliated with a particular religion can do or say anything to interfere with the beliefs, practices, actions, activities or any person or persons of a different religion.

Answer 7

Have seen no evidence of christian persecution in the US. Unless it is the christians persecuting other religions.

Answer 8

You would have to start actually persecuting them first. Not only do the ones in the US live in the lap of luxury compared to 99% of the rest of the world but the legal system and government has shown them preferential treatment for so long they truly believe they're entitled to it.

The best way to begin the persecution would be allow them everything they're demanding then change the dominant religion in the country.

Then their children would have to say another religion's prayers in public school. Their children would be taught another religions creation myth in science class. Another religion would be able to dictate who can legally marry. And so on.

Heck now that I say it that sounds pretty good to me. Same crap different religion. It would be no worse than now but it would be well worth it to see the look an the faces of those demanding those things now. "In Xenu we trust"

Answer 9

End the Christians persecution of everyone else.

Answer 10

Effective education regarding what persecution actually is should clear up the issue promptly.
