What rights are Christians having taken away here in America? How many jobs were you denied for being Christian? Houses? Ability to adopt?

Compare that to the number that do use their religion as a bludgeon to justify stripping rights away from people and the many more who are silent.

Irrelevant. You don't get to call all Christians rapists, fascists and murderers without challenge, based on what you think is inherent to them. If not you yourself called them that, others do and you don't get to bypass that when someone says its wrong to generalise.

Also it's nice how you signify "here in America." The Christians in India being persecuted don't count? Or they're just ae bad in your eyes?

You think that generalising all Christians is not the same as generalising all black people or all LGBT people. And all Muslims or all Hindus etc?
Fine. No one can stop you. On this forums you'll get people applauding you. Of course if Christians respond then that's wrong of them also they just need to admit how backwards and stupid and hateful they all are.

But it doesn't make it right. Even your framing it of "what about those who have been hurt by Christians" doesn't hold up, in the same way that saying all white people are bad because in America most racial oppression is done by people who are white, doesn't hold up. I have no problem discussing the problems caused by a lot of white people or a lot of Christians. But I won't write them all off.

And replying with "u didnt mind christians raping or killing but u get angry because someone said ur a facist" is fundamentally wrong, because you've maintained the generalised premise in the first place. Nor is this a victim complex, just as arguing with tipping fanatics who say "all people who dont tip deserve to have their food spat into" is not adopting a victim complex for all uh....non tippers.
