    No, they think not being on a pedestal and having their unwarranted privileges slowly peeled away means they are “persecuted”.

    They also think it’s “persecution” when they cannot brainwash other people’s children while in captivity at public schools.

        Very true - I know some xtians just about lose their minds when a “world religions” class is discussed, or talking about “the” bible as literature.

        The notion that their chosen lifestyle were to be put on equal footing to other mythologies in an educational setting is just mind-boggling to them and absolutely enrages many of them.

        xtians: “We want religion back in the public schools!”

        normal Americans: “How about we teach kids about xtianity in the context of other religions? And have “the” bible included as part of Western literature?”

        xtians: “NOOOOOOO! NOT LIKE THAT!”
