Christian
Persecution
– In America
HAD NOT DISCRIMINATED AGAINST ANYONE
CONSTITUTIONALLY-SPEAKING cannot
REQUIRE EMPLOYEES TO GET PERMISSION BEFORE
EXPRESSING THEIR RELIGIOUS VIEWS
EMPLOYMENT WAS, NONETHELESS TERMINATED
CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION
I hear from atheists, with fervency, on an
almost daily basis (certainly several times weekly), that - “You whiny Christians,
howling about Christian persecution. You
are the single most coddled, catered to, and sucked up to, bunch in America” –
interestingly, even atheists from Australia, the UK, South Africa and the
Scandinavian region use that same phrase - “Christians are the single most
coddled, catered to, and sucked up to, bunch in America”. Seriously, very, very few (if any) ever say “…bunch
in South Africa… bunch in Australia… bunch in the UK…”, which just in and of
itself seems odd… if not more rooted in anti-Americanism, than anti-God. But I digress… From the typical atheistic mindset, we
Christians in America (the West) are the most coddled, catered to, and sucked
up to, bunch of people…
And, fact is… we are… when compared to the
horrors of what Christians are exposed to in parts of Africa (South Africa notwithstanding),
the Middle East, N. Korea, etc, rather coddled,
catered to, and sucked up to (strictly speaking) by comparison. The
argument can be made that Christians are indeed not being persecuted, in
America, the way Christians are in many, many other nations and Kingdoms. That said, what happened to Former Atlanta
Fire Chief, Kelvin Cochran - http://bit.ly/2sKsXYk
- is deeply disturbing. Disturbing
because, while clearly, he has not had limbs severed, or digits cut (or burned)
off, etc., he has had his career, a meritorious career, without blemish, destroyed
solely because he holds near-and-dear to his heart - “Christian Values”!
Even after the city of Atlanta had concluded that Cochran - “…had not discriminated against anyone…” - http://bit.ly/2sJfakN - Cochran’s employment was, nonetheless terminated… WHY? His employment was terminated because, the city of Atlanta alleges Cochran - “…had not obtained the Board of Ethics’s approval in violation of Section 2-280(d) of the City’s Ethics Code.” – EVEN THOUGH - “…constitutionally-speaking, the city cannot require employees to get permission before expressing their religious views.” - http://bit.ly/2sJtjyw - did you catch that?
The city of Atlanta had concluded that Cochran HAD NOT DISCRIMINATED AGAINST ANYONE, and yet… In Spite of it being, CONSTITUTIONALLY-SPEAKING illegal to REQUIRE EMPLOYEES TO GET PERMISSION BEFORE EXPRESSING THEIR RELIGIOUS VIEWS, Cochran’s lack of “permission” was used as grounds for dismissal, thus his EMPLOYMENT WAS, NONETHELESS TERMINATED, for his religious (Christian) views. – CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION

So, yeah… to my many atheist friends
(yeah, I really do have a few of you, and I really do love you guys) - “Yes…
Christians are being persecuted, for our faith, in America and in Canada, and
in the UK, Australia, South Africa etc!”
Just sayin...
