While Iran is impressively progressive in regards to transgender issues officially; they are also very accepting of Christianity officially. Today, there are at least 600 churches for 250,000 Christians in Iran.

In fact The government guarantees the recognized Christian minorities a number of rights, such as the right to buy non Halal food.

So can you support that Christians are less accepted than transgender people (who, unlike Christians, are officially advised to keep their status private)?

When Christians demonstrate their God instead constantly promising some future salvation/threats by their God, then they won't be able to cry "persecution."

What the hell does that even mean? Stop foaming at the mouth from your hatred of Christians for a second and try to discuss things logically.

Do you have more examples of trans people being persecuted in Iran? The first article is about LGBT rights as a whole, including homosexuality, which we know it isn't going to fly in Iran. The second article is one woman's experience.

Speaking of "around the world": Let's talk about the US. How many avowed non-Christians have been elected president in the past 150 years?

This isn't the thread for that. We're talking about the persecution of Christians around the world, not philosophical or theological debates.
