How do you figure? I will grant that there are some who are not fervent in their belief, and even some small minority that fits into your description that you appear to believe accounts for the overwhelming majority of Xns in the US, but any census about practicing Xns will still reveal that they are a supermajority.<hr size="1" /></blockquote>

Are you serious? I know tons and tons of people that just go to church on holidays... and anyways, just going to church doesn't necessarily make you a true Christian by any means.

How about not being able to pray or discuss their beliefs in public schools? And how about those same schools teaching the big bang and evolution? You can say that Christians can just go to their own schools, but being barred from free schooling simply because these schools feel they have a right to make these students mandatorily learn beliefs that are so foreign and conflicting with theirs, I call that oppression.

Anyways, I think the future will hold much greater prejudice against Christians, where the "Easter Christians" will assimilate with pagan society while true Christianity is driven underground.
