Whenever laws move away from codifying Christian principles like traditional marriage, the response is that the faith is under attack. And it's not hard to imagine what the response would be if churches were ever seriously threatened with losing their tax benefits (en lements). I doubt we'll see that in our lifetimes though.

    What's wrong with those numbers? You don't think evangelical Christianity is under attack? Or that the country is getting less religious?

    I think evangelical Christians are idiots, but they're probably suffering a non-negligible amount of discrimination.

    Is Evangelical Christianity gaining or losing popular acceptance?

    Christian influence on our laws is losing popular acceptance. That's quite different from Christianity being under attack. Christianity's existence is not dependent on validation through theocracy.

    Is there a difference between mainstream Christianity and evangelicalism?

    This is hardly surprising to anyone with a room temperature IQ. Contemporary Christians are watching the erosion of what was once societal norms ie prayers in school, prayers before games, religious displays, etc. As the country and our society continues to move to a more secular mode, it's not surprising that Christians feel some form of persecution, whether it's really persecution or not.

    I can spare a few minutes out of the day to lol at Christians that cry about gays and the government attacking them.

    Do you have nothing better to do than to be on this board discussing my thoughts?
