Is American Culture Hostile to Christians?
Two points to be made here:
1) The percentage of those who identify as Christians in the United States and Europe is quite clearly falling, though that doesn’t mean that nonbelievers are “hostile” to the faithful.
2) Hostility comes in when Christians seek to impose their beliefs on society as a whole. We don’t want religion taught as science in our schools, we don’t want it used to block our epidemiologists from protecting our health, we don’t want religion fanaticism taking away women’s rights or blocking our attempts to prevent environmental collapse.
On these points, we most certainly do have a tendency to be hostile.
Let’s be clear — stop branding all “Christians” as being of one belief.
The people you are talking about are the Evangelical Christians, and are the ones that belive they have the right to dictate to others.
