Equality feels like oppression when you are used to privilege.

Once they're told they cannot discriminate against anyone, they scream that they're the ones being discriminated against.
Everyone has the SAME rights. The christians just want to treat everyone they consider "less than" themselves as less than human.
Fuck them.

Your are very right. Their doctrine even teaches them at a young age to expect to be persecuted for their beliefs. And for them persecution translates into not being allowed to control the behavior of others,

It is a time tested trick to blame your opponent for what you are doing yourself

The gay movement has challenged the notion that most people support their views of what's moral. In Australia, more than 62% voted against the Christian view and supported gay marriage. Christians have realised they are in the minority and they don't like it. yes, they are bigots

My personal favorite is the "gay agenda" or the "trans agenda." As if there's some handbook and monthly meetings you need to review before you are accepted.

Christians: we can't control people's life as much as we used to before. We are so persecuted....
Public:

Play the victim.

The complaint isn't "more" rights, it's "the same" rights.

Complain about a Gay Rights parade? Well, nobody needs a Christian Rights parade, because Christians have been a privileged group since the founding of the Colonies. There are actually 6 states with blasphemy laws still on the books (including Michigan, to my undying shame).

When religious restrictions no longer trump secular rights, that's when the complaints start.

It's amazing when not being able to control others is defined as being controlled. My ex used to pull that on me.

They make me puke.

It’s also the Republican talking point.

It's still perfectly legal to discriminate against the LBGT folks in places of business in 20 states here in this country. And the dipshit VP thinks that's totally fine.

These Christian fossil fuckers can blow their "religious freedoms" out of their ass.

Yep, it happens often ... bullies believe they are the real victims.

If they spent more time and focused on putting the beatitudes into practice, they would have less time crying about they're rights.

Yup they can't control others like they used to

All religions think they have no rights compared to any other religion!!!

Hindu’s versus Islam!

Christians versus Islam!

BuddhIsm versus Islam!

It seems they all have problems with the Rights of women, gays, atheists, pagans, and Wicca!!!

Religions are nothing more than a cult being displayed as a moral ethical compass of the moronic idiots that follow them so blindly!,.

It so funny that all these religious leaders are male!!!

Yes, all religions are victim cults of male leaders for power and pure greed!!!

Sadly, it's human nature for the dominant culture/religion to try to suppress the marginalized ones. Happily, increased media exposure is exposing the general public to sympathetic, popular gay characters, which polls show is fast changing people's minds.

Fear is typically at the core. Fear that their beliefs may prove incorrect, fear that the 'others' may influence them, fear that their behavioral paradigm may not be sustainable when they are exposed. What an awful way to live.

Why ironic? Irony is one expectation and a different outcome. Paradoxical, yes, they do love to play the victim.

Ramone—-you are exactly right

The whole religion is based on victimhood. "Look how JC suffered! We wear the instrument of his torture around our necks!" Some serious psychopathy there.

They were just able to kick a citizen off a plane because of a Satanic Temple shirt, so they have no leg to stand on

I can't imagine caring about someone having the right to do something I don't want to do, and that extends back to when I tried to be religious.
