The Bible clearly states that Christians will be persecuted. It still happens today in many different forms, from as simple as being mocked to as serious as murder. Be that as it may, you should not let persecution discourage you from being a Christian. Accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior is one of the most important things you will do on this Earth. You shouldn't avoid it just because of the persecution. Although life may be hard for you at times because you are a Christian, be strong. Christian persecution may not be avoidable, but as Christians, we can endure it. You can try to get through those trials by reading Bible verses about persecution. Read the scripture on persecution here and try to find peace in your life. Psalms 9:13 Have mercy on me, O LORD; consider my trouble which I suffer of them that hate me, you that lift me up from the gates of death: Psalms 119:86 All your commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help you me. Jeremiah 20:11 But the LORD is with me as a mighty terrible one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: their everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten. Matthew 5:12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. John 15:18 If the world hate you, you know that it hated me before it hated you. John 15:20 Remember the word that I said to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 1 Corinthians 4:12 And labor, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: 2 Corinthians 12:10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. 1 Thessalonians 3:4 For truly, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and you know. 2 Timothy 3:12 Yes, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. Hebrews 10:33 Partly, whilst you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst you became companions of them that were so used. 1 Peter 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you: 1 Peter 4:16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

Meh I will argue with any religious person who wishes to push their beliefs onto me. Christian,Muslim,sheikh,Buddhist,Taoist, so on etc etc just seems to be the Christian community is the more vocal on here at least.

The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. (‭Psalm‬ ‭34‬:‭10‬ NIV)

Christians can lick my butt.

Destiny is religion. Destiny is life.

cause they are gay

I like your choice of bait

Christians have booger lips.

*grabs chair* dis gon b good

Simple they know they will be safe no matter what ... No fear of reprisals

I think discussion of religion versus atheism is pointless. Let the children play. They'll grow up eventually.

Also because for some reason, some Christians feel the need to follow old laws of the the old testament. Which they aren't supposed to do.

God comes out as gay, rejected by worshippers :D [spoiler]I'm an ass, I know[/spoiler]
