> Inside the Sunshine Coin Laundry near the Piggly Wiggly supermarket, Lagretta Ellington removed her family’s clothes from one of the large dryers and began to neatly fold them on a nearby table.
> The air was moist and smelled of detergent. The floor was concrete. Her views of the presidential race were anything but. She was unsettled, and distrustful. The candidates just seemed like entertainers.

In the South, now the pivotal battlefield of the 2016 presidential campaign, faith and politics walk the aisle together. And while Christians have always dominated American politics – Bernie Sanders this week became the first non-Christian ever to win a presidential primary in U.S. history – conservative Christians feel under siege.

So are you trying to imply that all Christians act like the one in the top frame of the comic? Do you stereotype like that when it comes to other groups too?
Truth is some of them are normal people and they are indeed being disenfranchised by this PC enforcement nonsense which is essentially divide and conquer in its most obvious form. You don't have to be against everything white, male, and traditional. Those are the things that got our society to where it is today. Yet I've seen nothing but regression since the other side has taken the reigns, and I say that as a third party.

Some might say there is something incredibly primitive about the woman's world view. Rather than analyze the candidates positions she relies on God to "tell" her who to vote for.

No christians in america are being persecuted nor have they ever. What they are feeling is called entitlement, something that they claim is a problem with everyone else except themselves.

Surely they wouldn't make up the threat...?!

For once, I would like to read a evangelical Christian news article without the sexual puns. It's like they can not hear themselves think over all of the rug-burn. Jeez.

What's the conservative version of reddit?!

Exactly right. This is something that is so hard to get people to understand though.

I want to know too.

This. Christians are so used to special treatment and consideration in the US that any pushback against said special treatment feels like oppression and persecution to them.

I may not agree with everything they believe but you have to be pretty damn blind not to see how much it's okay to restrict their religious freedom while allowing muslim practices to run completely unchecked. That is literally persecution.
