Christians? Race? Oppressed?
This screams for the Pacman chart!

No, wait, that was wrong.

Here we go.
Beyond the normal dumbness of this post, how the hell is christianity a "race." Some Jews can still trace their lineage back, so, ok, some are part of the Hebrew race, but forced conversion of every one they can see - I think that sort of messes up the idea of race definition.
You're not oppressed. You are free to express yourself any way you want. Just because you don't always get your way, doesn't mean everyone's out to get you, especially if your way is to be out to get another group (eg. homosexuals).
Christians are not oppressed, nor are they a race! Try doing a little real research that didn't stem from your homeschooling days.
Also, Jesus was liberal! Liberals are destroying christianity by following liberalism! See the conundrum there?
Dammit, their persecution complex is everywhere. I made a quick search on google image search for the "persecuted, persecuted not persecuted"-picture, and the first result was from a page which includes this fine quote: "However, it may not be far off that we are arrested for “hate crimes” simply because we preach and teach a Christ honoring, biblical worldview. "
They really believe this. And the person writing for that page didn't seem to be a total nutcase either, from what I read, but he's still brainwashed with their persecution complex.
"Yes, the long war on Christianity. I pray that one day we may live in an America where Christians can worship freely! In broad daylight! Openly wearing the symbols of their religion... perhaps around their necks? And maybe -- dare I dream it? -- maybe one day there can be an openly Christian President. Or, perhaps, 43 of them. Consecutively." - Jon Stewart
1. Christianity is not a race
2. It's a certain group of Christians doing the most of the oppressing in this country
3. Most of the rest of us are just trying to live our lives the way we choose, not trying to 'intentionally poison Christianity'
3a. Speaking against what certain Christian groups are doing because we see it is wrong (e.g. denying certain people certain rights), or trying to explain to people why we are not Christians is not 'intentionally poisoning Christianity'
OK now we've had the pacman chart and the waambulance, can we please have the "oppressed, oppressed, not oppressed" macro?
This retard clearly knows nothing about the nazi oppression of jews .
I don't live in the united states, but I'm fairly sure that the christians there are not oppressed .
It'd be fairly major news if they started packing people into cattle-cars and dragging them off to death camps.
Someone seriously fucking needs a history lesson.
And the thousands of people who just lost basic civil rights in California due to the public campaigning of "oppressed", tax-exempt, so-called Christian institutions would also like a word with you.
Oppressed? Around here, you can drive down the interstate and see a giant freakin' Jesus statue! Yeah, that's really oppressed.
Also, comparing yourself to the Jews during WWII for the serious lose.
Somebody better call the whambulance...

So um... what does this have to do with cars?
FYI: just because the minority is given equal protection under the law does not mean that the majority (aka: Christians) are being persecuted. You're being held back from inflicting your particular weirdness upon people who happen to not believe the same thing you do. Oh the humanity.
If Christians are a race different from human, what nation do they constitute?
You're not very bright, are you?
Can you not do the "oppressed" first world majority Jeebus nincompoops STFU already.
Oppression is having the secret police smash through your house in the middle of the night, drag you off to a secret location and torture you for months, maybe to death.
Oppression is being chased off your lands and turned into refugees.
Oppression is not being allowed freedom of movement, assembly or speech because of your skin colour, ethnicity, politics or religious beliefs.
Oppression is being herded into pits with your whole family and the residents of your village and machine gunned. Oppression is when some foreign army smashes through your lands raping pillaging and looting.
Oppression is not being a bunch of whiny, spoiled, fat first world Bitches who throw a tantrum every time they are told that they are wrong.
Also religion =/= race you fucking throwback.
"right now christians are the most oppressed race in america."
Being asked to respect other beliefs is not oppression. I don't know how much simpler we can make that.
"The oppression is growing worse then the nazi oppression of the jews."
Have you been thrown out of your home? Do you have a number tattooed to your wrist? Were you or any of your family members herded into cattle cars and sent to death camps, where if you were spared the gas chambers you were starved, beaten, worked or froze to death, or had cruel medical experiments performed on you? Don't even dare getting your precious little feelings hurt to one of the most horrific events in human history.
"The liberal US is intentionally being a poison to christianity."
How is people becoming more accepting of other beliefs, thereby giving us all more freedom to chose our beliefs and live more openly in our beliefs a poison?
"Can anyone tell me why their trying to destory our nation?"
It seems to me a certain "christian" president is responsible for the mess this country is currently in.
Oh, and it's "they're" not "their".
Are you being dragged out into the street and shot because your neighbour accused you of being Christian?
Are the Secret Police raiding homes and destroying any christian scriptures or iconography they find?
Does a Christian man running for president cause public outcry and protest?
Are Christian churches banned?
Are Christians regularly lynched for no good reason other than being Christian?
Are Christians being dragged forcefully to internment or death camps?
Are people captured and forced to convert away from Christianity by torture or extreme duress?
Is being Christian a crime?
Are Christians being exterminated, crucified, stoned (the bad kind) or tortured in large numbers?
Do Christian worshipers and congregations have to worship in secret?
If you answered No to all these questions then Christians ARE NOT OPPRESSED!
Feel free to add more to this list.
1) Christianity isn't a race.
2) Christians aren't oppressed in America.
3) Godwin.
4) The US isn't a Christian nation.
Other than these 4 points, your post was fine.
Actually, I think they should simplify things and outlaw all religions except Zoroastrianism. Basically you should have the choice of worshipping Ahura Mazda or being an atheist.
No doubt a lot of fundies would complain about that and say it was some sort of oppression, persecution of inequality, but to those people I say you will have as much right to follow Zoroaster as anyone else so it is completely fair. You know, like you said about gay marriage.
Boo hoo. Cry a river, build a bridge, and get over it!
Not being able to force your beliefs on the entire FREE nation =/= persecution
Tell ya what, spend a month in North Korea, come back, and then tell us how badly you're persecuted in America.
You know who's really oppressed for their beliefs in Jesus? Ahmadiyya muslims. Considering that in several countries (including Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Malaysia) they can be sentenced to years in prison for greeting someone, or trying to vote, they're quite a bit more oppressed than you. Why? Because they believe that God saved Jesus from death on the cross, and Jesus went to other parts of the world to continue to preach.
So, remind me, how oppressed are you Christians.
Excuse me but...race?
You should just be put down, honestly, and you go on to whine about your America. Fuck off.
Oh wow, then say how it's worse than Nazi oppression of the Jews. Way to make shit up and be offensive all at once.
Then...you mispelled "they're". Classic.
Is this guy even for real?
@Dyz
You're exactly right.
Y'all had to register yourselves yet?
Had your property taken away from you?
Not allowed to walk on the sidewalk?
Not allowed to sit on public benches?
Not allowed to buy things from non-christian business?
Really? Then why don't you STFO and GTFO!
Turn off your stupidity gauges guys....
"right now christians are the most oppressive race in america. The oppression is growing worse when the christian oppression of anybody who thinks differently than them. The conservative Us is intentionally poisoning the minds of non-believers.Can anyone tell me why they're trying to destroy our nation?" There we go.
Try again my friend, carposter, people probably make fun of christians because you believe in a cosmic jewish zombie who is his own father who was born of a virgin came down to earth to kill himself to somehow save us from the talking snake of evil who brought us into this world in the first place................ Really?

Lets guess,
you learned that racism is bad,
but because you were homeschooled by christian fundamentalist parents, you never learned what a race really is.
So to give you some obviously very badly needed informations:
If you are a white and another person is (for example) a black person or a chinese, then you are of a different race.
If you are both white and have just a different religion, you are not of another race.
It would also be advisable to not compare your "oppression" to the Nazi oppression as it is obvious, that the homeschooling you got concrning german history was as bad as your homeschooling concerning biology ;)
The Christian "race" huh?
The largest majority in the United States is the most oppressed?
And these same people make fun of liberals for having a victimization complex.
You are so right, it's just terrible the way they herd Christians into filthy cattle cars for the ride to the concentration camp, tattoo numbers on them, work them until they drop dead of starvation, experiment on their children and then shove the ones who survive into the gas chambers...O WAIT.
also, people who take the bible for what it says are those who are oppresed. God gave us herb yielding seed for meat (read the first chapter of the first book), but if you grow cannabis if only to eat it you can go to jail for as much as 20 years.
Maybe someone should do oppression seminars so you idiots know what it is. Is this an egageration of Christian plight or a lessing of the holocaust. I suspect the second.
"we got more martyrs than you do, we win"
WTF does this have to do with cars?
ohhhh is this the whole "Jesus is my co-pilot, and I am being oppressed because I am not allowed to hang gay people and slap Muslim children" thing?
For some perverse reason, there are some(many) among this set who really DO believe they are being herded into concentration camps in the US. They think Christianity will soon be made a felony, and Googling "martial law" gets hundreds of thousands of hits. Not from news stories of places that really do have martial law like Myannmar ar Zimbabwe, but to conspiracy sites who say it will/is happening here.
"right now christians are the most oppressed race in america."
The Religious Right no longer having political power via the GOP (and thus being able to impose their 'morals' on everyone else, because Obama's now president != 'Oppression/Persecution'
tl;dr: Grow up and grow thicker skins, you big babies.
right now christians are the most oppressed race in america. The oppression is growing worse then the nazi oppression of the jews.
Oh just shut your whiny ass up already! I absolutely DESPISE it when people try to compare every little inconvenience they experience to the Holocaust. It makes light of the suffering and death of millions of people when it's just tossed around like that. Now, onto the persecution claim; here's a list of things that count as persecution:
-denial of standard rights to a group of people because of the group they belong to (hmmm, why does this sound familiar?)
-killing/hurting people because of the group they belong to
-not allowing individuals to assemble and speak about their beliefs
-Forcefully segregating a particular group
-Enslaving a particular group
Now, here's a list of things that don't count as persecution:
-Not allowing a group to take the rights of another group away simply because it's in their beliefs
-Not making a special exception for a particular group in order to get their beliefs (and nobody else's) taught in science class as science
-Allowing women who don't follow your fundamentalist, black and white worldview to get life-saving terminations of pregnancy or in the case of rape while not infringing on your decision to die with the baby or have to take care of an unwanted rape baby.
-Not having mandatory prayer to your god (even for students that don't believe in it and would rather use the wasted time learning rather than having to either go along with the class or sit in silence).
-Keeping church and state separate, which actually ends up helping YOU too. How so? Well, under a theocracy there's no guarantee that it'll be your denomination that's in charge and rest assured, any denomination that's willing to replace a democracy with a theocracy will NOT allow you to worship your god in your way.
(emph-ass-is added):
"destory our nation"

"right now christians are the most oppressed race in america. The oppression is growing worse then the nazi oppression of the jews"
I've met and talked with a survivor of the Nazis' ultimate death factory, Auschwitz. You fundies know nothing of 'Persecution'.
Until you & your ilk have (at least) had exactly the same thing happen to you, as did to that particular Jewish person, and the other Survivors - to say nothing of the Six Million - You don't even have the right to claim you're 'Persecuted'.
Really? Are they sending us to concentration camps? Are they killing us? Are they taken away our rights or our property?
The answer to all of the above is no. Therefore we are not being persecuted at all. Also, Christianity is a religion, not a race, and people becoming more reasonable and tolerant does not mean the country is being destroyed. Get some sense carposter.
You do realise there's a difference between race and religion, right? Namely, one's a physical matter, the other's a psychological one?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
