A New Definition of Persecution

[emmiedahl]

Fundies cry persecution over everything so I thought it would be fun to make a list.

Persecution=

• Commenting negatively on public statements
  Running schools or government institutions that are not overtly Christian
  Listening to them on a sidewalk
  Not listening to them on a sidewalk
  Being concerned about child abuse and/or neglect
  Asking them to not block a public sidewalk
  Teaching science in a science class
  Teaching about non-Christian religions in a World religions class
  Allowing people to marry outside of Old Testament law

Any additions?

Persecution=

Shaking their hands!

Saying "God bless you" to them!

[thoughtful]

Not being their particular brand of Christian, or at least slavering with eagerness to become one. :(

[emmiedahl]

Refusing to take a flier or let them (a perfect stranger, a man I have never seen before!) in my house to share the Gospel.

[Childless]

Wishing them "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas".

[debrand]

What consenting adults, who you probably don't have any contact with, do in their own bedroom is capable of persecuting Christians and their marriage.

-Not agreeing with them

-ask for your honest opinion but it doesn't jive with their thoughts
