1. Are American Christians oppressed? I often hear from Christians that they feel they are oppressed, even though they likely make up a supermajority of the American population.<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>
The only way to make the case that Christians make up a supermajority is to make the reference to "cultural" Christianity. That is, I am a Christian because my father went to church, was baptized as an infant, have a Christian name, am on the church role somewhere (belive me ~ 64.35476%
of america in on a church role somewhere. Once you get on, you never get off.), but it has no effect on my lifestyle or what I believe as an individual. If you consider Christianity as an active religion that influences lifestyle, the numbers are pitifully small.<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>
I see what you mean. Lots of Easter Christians (my pastor would always make note of this back when I was a church goer) but during the year just the regulars.
