"they're internet 'Romans' carrying out their persecutions of Christians."
You need us, Ruptured Retards. Otherwise, how could you justify that Persecution Complex of yours? Can't be a True Christian without being persecuted, eh?!
There's Christians here in FSTDT. They're just not the type who feel threatened by gays, nor think Genesis is being whittled away by scientific discoveries, or who agree that it's the individual woman's choice what she does with her body. And they certainly don't feel threatened by a liberal, black president in the White House.
You used to be the Romans, with your God Emperor Dumbya, your powerbase in the Senate (supported by your GOP lobbyists), and your influence upon such, as you persecuted the 'Christians' in the shape of gays, women wanting abortions, and generally anyone not like you. The Religious Right had power.
Now your empire has fallen, and you're now in your own Dark Ages, with your impotent, ineffectual GOP, the fucked-up economy & country as a whole, and an entire country who got their revenge on you by electing Obama, now tasked with repairing the unholy mess created by your poster boy of the Religious Right, Neocons, and Inbreds, the ex-God Emperor of Fucking Up, George Wanker Bush. And who elected Dumbya, who fucked up your country? You. Yes, YOU. Therefore the ultimate responsibility for the way your country is in (which Obama inherited; you have NO right to blame him), is you fundies & Repubicans. Ergo, you should be persecuting YOURSELVES.
QED.
Frankly, if you're being 'persecuted' (as you define it), then you're asking for it. And you deserve it. Want it to stop? Well then. Stop being right-wing fundietards. Start being left-wing, meek, reserved, keeping yourselves to yourselves, unopinionated, non-pushy, non-arrogant, know your place, tolerant - and humble.
Why not try it sometime, Ruptured Retards? It wouldn't kill you. Then the 'persecution' would stop.
