The fact is that Christians are very much privileged in the United States. Christianity is an ideology in the United States that enjoys implicit, unreflecting, and uncritical acceptance.
Exactly.
Consequently, the notion of a ‘war on Christians’ is indeed a myth.
The mass delusion that is a fact and a requirement of all of the various religious beliefs is fascinating.
Very few people are so blindly accepting of those who believe in, say, extraterrestrials visiting us for the purpose of anal probes, Elvis sightings at WalMart and Bigfoot moving in next door.
But, huge tax free clubs that charge a membership fee and use magic water, magic underwear, magic smoke to sell an invisible and imaginary creature who guarantees the members they'll never die -- THAT is blindly accepted and downright freaky.
My own opinion is that the UFO nuts, Elvis and Bigfoot fans as well as the various religions are mostly harmless examples of mass delusion. While its not polite to point and snicker, as long as the religion nutters mind their own business and stay in their clubhouses, let them thump their bibles and mumbo their jumbo.
The problem is, they won't do that. They want us all to share their delusion and they want an end to the Constitution.
Along with their tax free clubhouses, they get special treatment and special rights not afforded the rest of us and I'm really sick of their proselytizing and whining for more.
