    Christianity is not a religion.

    Well, I am going to read the book anyway. I already learned some stuff (like about Rome and the naming of Palestine) that I didn't know...and everyone else probably did.

    True. It's a relationship with Jesus Christ.

    FAITH UNDER FIRE

    MEGA-CHURCH FORCED TO YANK 'CHRISTIAN NATION' BILLBOARDS

    Paper publishes articles characterizing content as 'hateful, divisive'

    Published: 4 hours ago(CBN) —
    WASHINGTON – Pastor Robert Jeffress is fighting back after he says his mega-church,
    First Baptist Dallas, was forced to take down two billboards advertising his upcoming sermon, “America is a Christian Nation.”
    Jeffress tells CBN News the day after the billboards went up, the Dallas Morning News published two articles characterizing their content as “hateful” and “divisive.” Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings was quoted in one of the articles.
    Jeffress says the articles were sent to the company that created the billboards, Outfront Media, which ended up taking them down and canceling its contract with First Baptist Dallas. The company pointed to the Dallas Morning News articles and classified the advertisements as “anger-provoking.”

    For the life of me, I can’t fathom how it is logical in their minds to allow others to say and do things that may be offensive to me, but the second I do anything it is suddenly wrong.

    How come you care more about persecution of Christians than the persecution of Central Americans?

    Re: More persecution of Christians

    How many US consulates are passed between Panama and the US/Mexico border? Can they safely seek asylum at any of these locations? I am very aware of the problems these people face in their home country and I don’t think anyone deserves to be treated that way. However, if you are seeking asylum, wouldn’t you stop at the first safe place your passed?

    I don’t think I will run past a cop looking for a different cop to protect me from a perpetrator.

    If Central Americans are being persecuted for being Christians is posted in the media I will post these in this thread too.

    And I do have a heart for them as I've been on some long missions trips to Guatemala, Belize and farther south in Brazil.

    Yes many are Catholic and there are evangelicals as well.

    For the record, persecution is generally frowned upon in civil society. FWIW.
