yes, there is discrimination. there has ALWAYS been discrimination. and for the past while, there has been an amazing amount of discrimination against Christians. that offends me....personally. we are not allowed to pray in schools (unless we're quiet about it), we are not allowed to say the pledge to the flag b/c of "under God"....it will more than likely be taken off of our currency sooner than later. it will never be fair to EVERYONE.....but no one was screaming "discrimination" when anything was taken away from us. when Christians are being persecuted and denied what we believed to be our rights, people are like, "so?" we didn't want roe v wade, but here it is. why should one group of this country get more consideration than another? they shouldn't, but it happens. it's cool to be gay and need rights, but it's not cool to be a Christian....ever. yeah, we're allowed to get married, but marriage to us is a holy thing....it's not a civil right or an American priviledge, but something given to us by God. that's why most conservatives want it protected, so to speak, b/c they see gays as habitual and unremorseful sinners that should not partake in such a holy gift. again, not saying that i agree, but that's what i understand.
But not everyone in this country is Christian. The Christians are certainly not being persecuted. Give me a break. They are pandered to. How would you feel if this country was run by a Muslim or Jewish leader who makes his decisions based on what Mohammed or Moses would do? This country was founded on freedom of religion and I currently feel that W does not care that I'm a Jew. His policies and decisions are all based on what Jesus would do and, yes, I have a huge problem with it.
