The founding fathers were mainly christian, there are even Biblical quotes on some of our government courthouses and structures. I never thought I would have to prove to anyone that the US was once a christian nation lmao....that is not even my point, if you wish to argue about whether the US was christian or not, make a thread about it. I'm not here to debate that.
my point is only further proven that the OP is correct, christian beliefs are being persecuted as we speak. Again, one can see that in this thread. It is not taught in schools anymore, you have to go to a special religious school to learn about it. In the 1800's schools had morning prayers. That doesn't happen anymore obviously. With the whole vatican sex abuse thing, it's only going to become more prominent that christianity is faulty. what else do I need to say here....

Listen to yourself man. Ever heard of freedom of religion? Anyone is allowed to believe want they want, and by teaching christianity in school as fact would be persecuting every other religion. This is exactly why everyone views christianity as a joke now a days. If you can't have 'your' way, then your being 'persecuted'. What about the musim religion? Buddhism? jewish? even mormon or catholic or protestant? Which one of christianity would you teach nationally and not have it be persecuting the others? Making it so that christian is mandatory to be taught if fascism, but America was founded on freedom, as in freedom to believe whatever religion you want. Evolution is taught in schools because by learning how it works, we're now able to find new medical advances and discoveries like antibiotics, which you know, is the point of science.
And America does teach christianity nationally already, its called 'church'. No one is saying you can't go to church, nor is anyone trying to shut down churches. Anyone is free to learn about christianity if they want. I don't get why it even needs to be in school when there's already church and bible study.
I don't know if anyone has ever commuted from NJ to NYC, but you are assaulted by Christians the entire time. My usual trip included a Presbyterian handing out breakfast bars at my home station, followed by a black dude yelling about hell in Newark as we switch trains, then there are the Pentecostals in Penn Station, and last but not least, another dude yelling about hell at the Times Square station. Sometimes if I'm lucky, someone will try to hand me a Jews for Jesus pamphlet on my way into Grand Central and then some dude will ask me to pray with him if I decide to take a bus home instead of the train. I've never seen Obama's secret police descend on any of them regardless of the thousands of people they annoy on a daily basis. Religion is very protected in the US.huh?
