If a Christian baker refuses to bake a cake for a gay wedding, that is front page news, but if a Muslim admits to planning to shoot up a church of several thousand people that is a non-event according to the media.

This anti-Christian bias is growing stronger with each passing year, and it has now become institutionalized in our society in so many ways. A recent article by Selwyn Duke highlighted some examples of this phenomenon that we have recently witnessed…

A student is punished for refusing to “stomp on Jesus,” a Christian baker faces a year in jail for refusing to cater faux marriages, two men are arrested for reading the Bible aloud near a government building, a school “purges” Christian works from its library. Critics asserting the existence of an institutional anti-Christian bias, and a resultant war on the faith, have often been labeled paranoid. But now two University of North Texas sociologists have produced research showing that just such an agenda exists — among America’s most powerful people.

The two sociologists that he was referring to are Professor George Yancey and Professor David Williamson, and they shared their research in a newly published book entitled “So Many Christians, So Few Lions: Is There Christianophobia in the United States?” The Christian Post interviewed Yancey about this new book and the following is an excerpt from that interview…

In the minds of many of the respondents Christians are ignorant, intolerant and stupid individuals who are unable to think for themselves. The general image they have of Christians is that they are a backward, non-critical thinking, child-like people who do not like science and want to interfere with the lives of everyone else.

But even worse, they see ordinary Christians as having been manipulated by evil Christian leaders and will vote in whatever way those leaders want. They believe that those leaders are trying to set up a theocracy to force everybody to accept their Christian beliefs. So, for some with Christianophobia, this is a struggle for our society and our ability to move toward a progressive society. Christians are often seen as the great evil force that blocks our society from achieving this progressive paradise.

If you are a “liberal”, it is quite likely that this is how you view Christians.

Many non-religious liberals consider evangelical Christianity to be the biggest “problem” that America is facing today, and some of the potential solutions that liberal activists are advocating for this “problem” are quite chilling.

During their research, Yancey and Williamson personally interviewed a number of “cultural progressive activists”, and the following are a few examples of what some of them said should be done to “the Christian right”…

“I want them all to die in a fire.” (Male, aged 26-35 with Doctorate).

“They should be eradicated without hesitation or remorse. Their only purpose is to damage and inflict their fundamentalist virus onto everyone they come in contact with.” (Female, aged 66-75 with Master’s degree).

“They make me a believer in eugenics…. They pollute good air…. I would be in favor of establishing a state for them…. If not, then sterilize them so they can’t breed more.” (Male, aged 46-55 with Master’s degree).

So what makes a liberal activist that wants to “eradicate” Christians that much different from an Islamic terrorist that wants to achieve the same goal?

Of course radical Islamic terrorists are probably more likely to use violent means to achieve their goal right now, but what would happen if our government became dominated by people that think like the liberal activists quoted above?

And don’t think that it can’t happen. When radical leftists took power in the Soviet Union, they killed countless numbers of Christians. When radical leftists took power in China, they killed countless numbers of Christians. And when radical leftists took power in Nazi Germany, they intended to completely eradicate Biblical Christianity.

On December 15th, 1941 U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt made the following statement: “To Hitler, the church…is a monstrosity to be destroyed by every means.”

Most Christians today don’t realize just how much Hitler hated our faith. But if you do the deep research, you will find some absolutely incredible things. In a previous article, I included the following information which was originally uncovered by author Bruce Walker, the author of “The Swastika Against the Cross: The Nazi War on Christianity“…

The Nazi tract Gott und Volk was distributed in 1941, and it describes the life cycle of German youth in the future, who would: “With parties and gifts the youth will be led painlessly from one faith to the other and will grow up without ever having heard of the Sermon on the Mount or the Golden Rule, to say nothing of the Ten Commandments… The education of the youth is to be confined primarily by the teacher, the officer, and the leaders of the party. The priests will die out. They have estranged the youth from the Volk. Into their places will step the leaders. Not deputies of God. But anyway the best Germans. And how shall we train our children? Thus, as though they had never heard of Christianity!”

We like to think that we are so much better than Nazi Germany, but the truth is that the exact same spirit is at work today.

Americans have been trained to want a society that has completely sanitized all references to the Bible and to the Christian faith from the public arena.

Our children are being raised in public schools that are specifically modeled after the German system. If you doubt this, just look it up. Prayer has been banned, and if you try to read a Bible during school hours it can get you suspended.

We may not call ourselves Nazis, but in so many ways we are just like them.

And the hatred toward Christianity in this country just continues to grow every time a comedian makes jokes about our faith and every time Christians are portrayed as stupid, evil or crazy in our movies and television shows.

Christians over in the Middle East are being crucified and are having their heads cut off, and of course the persecution of Christians in the western world is not even worth comparing to that at this point.

But all over the world hatred for Biblical Christianity is on the rise, and great persecution is coming.

The half-hearted, lukewarm religion that passes for Christianity in so many of our churches today has got to go, because that kind of faith is simply not going to cut it during the times that we are moving into.

It has already got to be settled in our hearts that we are willing to lay down our lives for what we believe, because someday that is precisely the choice that many of us may be forced to make.

Christians are often seen as the great evil force that blocks our society from achieving this progressive paradise.

If you are a “liberal”, it is quite likely that this is how you view Christians.

you know what dayne.....i've never been so lazy and close minded that i'd ever try to lump christians, mexicans, gays, southerners, muslims....ATHEISTS, or LIBERALS into neat and tidy little boxes to fit some convenient narrative or agenda i'm trying to push.

yeah, the writer (Snyder) could have edited his story a touch, but I think he got the gist of what's truly happening in the media, which is dis-regard news that has merit, and posting news that creates more strife between liberals and conservatives..

departing in an airplane, from Ft. Des Moines to San Antonio, in April 1980 , the last thing they(the military) made sure I had, was a pocket size Gideon's Bible.. I doubt if religion is even tolerated in the U.S. Military 36 years later..

WWJLUIC!!!





(who would jesus line up in crosshairs?)

I agree that its not good to generalize too much. This was an ISIS sympathizer, but not an ISIS plot.

What's more troubling to me is the President being unwilling to call the eradication of entire Christian communities in Syria/Iraq as "genocide".

At first that might seem like a way to avoid the political responsibility of that classification, but then we find out that he has a policy of only allowing ONE Christian family per year to immigrate with the endless stream of muslims they are resettling.

When he goes to a Christian event, he uses the narrative of "let's not get on our high horse" (from the top of his high horse) and recites a litany of things mostly done by european Crusaders several centuries ago. He doesn't mention that it was mostly Christians who led the way to ending slavery. He doesn't mention hospitals and even public schools were almost unanimously Christian outreaches that have been co-opted by the government now.

Then he goes to speak at a mosque and reinvents history, making muslims an important part of the founding of the country. Really? Where did that happen? Their religion would never hurt a fly, according to him. He makes no mention of the Barbary Coast wars that happened during Thomas Jefferson's Presidential term; an Islamic provocation that has continued ever since...

And he won't even allow our legal system to call perpetrators of Islamic violence in America "terrorists" yet they have already labeled any Christian group, or war veteran who disagrees with his many failed policies as "domestic terrorists". I'd bet you get that label just for pointing out he has lied to everyone about everything he has done.

This kind of attitude would not have been tolerated only 20 years ago. In fact, even Democrats in the 90s would have roundly condemned it, because people of faith were their largest constituencies and they didn't want to insult them.

But today? That same kind of duplicity is what I get from most (not all) of the atheists whom I interact with. They rail against any Christian morality, while acting like they don't see the green guerrilla in the corner that wants to remove their head from atop the shoulders. Teaching the tenets of Islam is part of the common core curriculum that is causing public schools to hemorrhage students to homeschooling. A failure from W that has been multiplied by O

So while I don't think it's ever good to view a people through a monolithic lens, there does seem to be a politically-sanctioned unwillingness on the part of the media (98% liberal) to credit people of Christian faith with any good contribution to society in America. No, we're the bad guys for pointing out the wickedness these failed policies bring, while enduring the President's lectures on the so-called "peaceful religion".
