The only thing about this debate that makes steam come out of my ears, and I say this with all sincerity, everything else can roll off my back, but when I read or hear people saying that Christians are persecuted in America, that makes my blood boil.

I visited the historical site for old St. Mary's City, Maryland, this weekend. It used to be the capital of Maryland, but when James II was deposed and William and Mary enthroned, they shut it down and ordered the capital transferred to Annapolis in order to get it away from the Catholics. That, my friend, is religious persecution.

Being told that you can't force the rest of the state to acknowledge your own personal religious beliefs isn't persecution. It's sanity.
