I'm sick and tired of people of faith pretending they are the oppressed [View All]

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

I've always been one to continually question my belief in God...I don't fall in the category of athiest but I don't fall in the category of person of faith necessarily.

But to claim people of faith are or HAVE been persecuted in modern day America is pure poppycock unless thee faith they belong to is Scientology, David Koresh's group or the like.

I very much follow the live and let live mantra, but I am not interested in worrying if I am alienating someone who would cram their version of Jesus down my throat.

Therefore, when discussing politics...it's certainly fine if people wish to underscore how we may not APPEAL to certain branches of the faithful...but PLEASE STOP PRETENDING YOU ARE THE OPPRESSED.

As far as I can tell, there's only one of you of significance that has been crucified and even HE wouldn't support half the shit that is being suggested as a means to appeal to his followers.
