Yeah...such bullshit. I can't drive ten blocks where I live without seeing a christian church of one variety or another. If that's persecution, then their definition of suffering must be pretty loose.

Unless there are active state sponsored measures in place to restrict where and when they can worship, what they believe and how they express the same, or killing them because of their faith, no persecution is occuring; just reasonable reactions to backward thinking which reasonable people have chosen to reject as inhumane.
