The rise of "anti-Christianism"

MANIFESTO

For a variety of reasons, various wingnuts have perceived and decried a rising tide of anti-Christian sentiment recently. Viz.,

American Christians seem to think that the slings and arrows of outrageous secular fortunes are being directed towards them - as opposed to Muslims who, according to the Christian right, get all the breaks. (Obviously, these Christians aren't paying attention during the routine Fox Muslim bashing segments). Despite the reality that American Christianity is not under siege, the world of "Fox & Friends" is a world of aggrieved Christians and "Fox & Friends" knows how to get them to whine even louder. Any complaint, real or imagined, is perceived as part of a conspiracy against Christians - or as Steve Doocy expressed it "anti-Christian sentiment that might be prevalent." The conspiracy against Christians is, according to good Christian Gretchen Carlson, happening in Europe and could happen here! Oh, nooo. This morning, she reported that a European Union school calendar omitted Christian holidays but kept Muslim, Jewish, and Hindu holidays in. The European Union says it was it was a mistake which will be corrected but Gretch called bullshit on them. The shoulders of those on "Fox & Friends" must be getting a little stooped from carrying that old, rugged cross!

Juxtapose that sentiment with new Alabama Governor Robert Bentley's contention that non-Christians aren't his brethren, and one's head start to spin.

This is all such nonsense and ever so tiring. Christian, Jew, Muslim, Rastafarian, Pastafarian, ad nauseam: They've all got their own agendas centered around their egocentric notion that they know all the answers and others must see the wisdom of their ways. Such monomania has been directly responsible for most of the species' catastrophes and the deaths of millions of believers and non-believers throughout history.
