Christians in America

No, I don't. And if people are spitting on you, it's not because you're a Christian.

Do people, in fact, spit on you? Literally? I hope so.


I have been spat upon before yes and how dare you make light of it. All I want is to tell people about God and show them the love of Jesus. Why do they treat me this way?

Remember, the bible says you will be persecuted, and that this is a good thing. However, if the polls are correct, about 85% of americans are christian of some denomination. So, you can hardly call that persecution.

85% of Americans claim to be Christians. The real ones are the ones who daily endure persecution for the sake of the gospel.

Christians in America are mercilessly persecuted. We are like Jews in Nazi Germany. They wont let us pray in the schools, they call us all kinds of names like bible thumper and holy roller and now they want to make gospel preaching a hate crime but our God will get us the victory. We have endured much for the gospel but take heart. Jesus said the world hated him and they will hate us too. The hour of his second coming is at hand and soon we will be with him in heaven. Our God is an awesome God. Amen.

Oh please. What a load of crap.

Like Jews in Nazi Germany eh? Really? They won't let you pray in public schools. You see, we have this concept of separation of Church and State. And as public schools are part of the State, it would negate the whole point if you were to pray in public schools. You are still free to pray privately in schools, just not as an organized event.

Then they call you names. Oh gosh, NAMES! Like the Christians who call homosexuals ****, etc? Is that what you mean? I must say, you are in dire need of help!

And if the second coming is happening soon, lets all wait for it when your god will decide who's been good and who has not. No need to complain about it since you have been a good little Christian, right?

and you dont call that persecution?
You honestly think that your inability to jam your religion down other peoples throats at will is comparable to the slaughter of thousands because of their race? Really?........Really?

They treat you this way because you are basically asking for it. If people want to hear about how much you love G_d then they will ask you. They don't want you to force feed them that nonsense if they are not interested in it. No one should be spat on but if you constantly putting yourself in that situation there is not much we can do about it. Jeez, I hate feeding the trolls but sometimes I just cant help myself :D

Why do we have to hide our faith? To appease modern day political correctness? I dont call homosexuals bad names so dont lie about me. I pray for them to find God and be saved from that ungodly lifestyle. God will indeed decide and you better watch it because you dont treat his servants very well.

waitasec, why should we hide our faith? Why do you we have to keep it in church? I am not ashamed to be a Christian. I believe in seperation of church and state too. The state needs to keep it's nose out of the church's business. We dont want control. We want to be able to freely practice our relationship.

Who is asking you keep your faith in your church only? As long as you don't interfere with other people you can practice your faith out in the open till you are blue in the face. The government has kept its nose out of the Church's business. So much so that churches don't pay taxes even.

You've said this a couple of times now. Since when do you hide your faith? You already admitted that you like to tell people about G_d. How is that hiding? Because they wont let you make everyone in public schools pray to your G_d? This is ridiculous.
:facepalm:
