HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA - I'll keep it shorter:
1 - Gays need rights 'given' to them (or more likely 'protected') because YOU ALREADY HAVE THEM - giving them to someone else is NOT PERSECUTION toward you. Jesus.
2 - Nothing that was given to you by (your) God should EVER BE LEGALLY PROTECTED. Our nation was founded on this principal at its heart. If you put on the tinfoil hat and say "it's not in the constitution!" I will mop the floor with you. [note that this is slight hyperbole, as you can claim you were 'given' your life, and obviously murder should still be illegal]
3 - Christians have never been persecuted, and they do NOT have the 'right' to enact prayers in school except for on their own time w/out intruding on others. What you claim is akin to saying whites are being persecuted b/c they can't have their own water fountains, separate from blacks, anymore.
