A look at actual Persecution of Christians in America

Edited on Sun Dec-04-05 06:08 PM by ck4829

Dozens of Black Churches burned in the 90's.

Who burned them?

The word "KKK" were seen on at least 1 Church.

The Racial Rhetoric of the RW'ers was also implicated.

What else happened here?

This is an example of ACTUAL PERSECUTION of Christians.

Who was behind it?

My bet is on the Far Right.

2. Jehovah's Witnesses also have stories about "christians" harassing them.

In the South, a "christian" church will harass them when they follow the ways of Jesus and go door to door to spread his message.

The pledge/national anthem, military draft, and holidays are also difficulties that Witnesses encounter.
