What's wrong with this? Apart from the time thing?

The 2001 Census has 76.5% of the US population identify as Christian, but just because someone says "Christian" on a census form, it doesn't mean they're actually Christian.

While Christians may not be oppressed in the US, they certainly are elsewhere.

ROFL at everything DWDL has said in this thread. To say that white Christian males are as or more persecuted than blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans, Middle-Easterners, females, Jews, atheists, Agnostics, Sikhs and Muslims is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

Depends on the country, Lief.

OK, I missed the word white. But Christians are persecuted.

Fortunately, we're not talking about Eritrea here. "There are some persecuted Christians somewhere in the world" is a completely spurious argument.

Congress were commenting about global persecution. It hasn't really happened to me, but I'm sure some of the Christians on this board were called "Bible-bashers" at school.

You're right, but it's still not acceptable.

It's not limited to American Christians only. Read the resolution.
