Quite the sad distractions from the simple question posed by the OP. Not only sad, but simply misplaced and not so accurate either. If there was a case for bullying, it would be the current majority and their antics. And, once the bully on the block gets shoved back a few times, well that's a different story. And, what is really, really funny is that most of those in that same crowd have such an interesting response to those comment on our illustrious commander in comic relief, or our muslim brothers who become outraged, riot, and kill Americans over silly little movie, and alike. Just seems the overall picture is folks pick their sides and nothing more. If you pick a side, don't feel compelled to bash the other side. That is what Jesus taught so to speak, but then again the current majority doesn't believe in him so it sort of makes sense ...

You know, you are so right. I must apologize. It's not as if Christianity has been anything less than unfair to all other faiths (they have done the same). It s not as if Christianity has ever tried or still tries to force it's self into the public sector. It is not as if Christianity does not try and influence politics and the law to try and ban things that they find offensive but have nothing to do with them. It's not as if they have not or still continue to try and influence how science is taught in public schools.
Play the poor pitiful victim all you want. You made your bed not you can sleep in it. Don't think you can threaten me with eternal punishment and have me roll over and accept it. Don't think you can put up your religious displays on public lands that my tax dollars help fund and have me keep quiet about it. Do not think that you can try and force your religious beliefs into the public school system that my money helps fund and not get any push back.
Cry all you want but be aware that we will not remain quiet any more.
