Who is really being persecuted, Christian or Pagans?

I do! that sounds awful, email me that if u can, thankx.

I think christians r jus fine, in fact they out number any other religion in this country, and then complain about the other ones "taking over" or w/e.

Well, first of all, I did read the story about the pagans and the VA. Interesting, I thought, because it was the VA and NOT the military that refused to accept their religion!!! However, all seems to be well now on that front.

I don't usually indulge in the media if I can help it. But I believe that in some ways, YA is what is going on out there in the world, in a microcosmic form. For that reason, I would say that probably all groups are persecuted about equally alike, not just Christians, but pagans, atheists, agnostics, wiccans, etc. etc. and that all those groups seem to also want to persecute Christians in return.

Those that are on the receiving end of the persecution are just as willing to dish it out.

That, in a nutshell, is why I don't subscribe to any religions.

I did follow some of the news reports regarding the battle to have the pentacle recognized. I was very glad to see this happen; although I feel this should have happened in 1995. In this year, the US Military officially recognized Wiccan and Pagan faiths instructing their pastors to familiarize themselves so to provide support to soldiers overseas, battlefields, etc. It would seem a natural assumption that the government would accept symbols for grave markers as well. As to your question regarding persecution...I believe the Pagans are taking a bigger hit; however, when such accusatory words are used such as your question, would you consider it may fuel this battle? I mean no disrespect by my answer or comments to you: however, I will say that if we focused on accepting all (including the Christains accepting Pagans) we will be a better society? .

Christians will say 'Christians', Pagans will say 'Pagans'. The truth is that both religions have had their share of persecution. Pagans have been persecuted by Christians, and visa-versa. In America nowadays, it's still the same way. Just not as violent.

-Pagan

Christians are belittled for unproven mythological faith and for their discrimination materially against pagans for not belonging.

in the US nobody is really being persecuted and most dont even know the meaning ...

I'm sorry, I wasn't informed that pagans were being persecuted, thanks for bringing this to my attention.

i try not to dwell on such things

here it seems Christians are but other places may be different
