I'll give you that these may be examples of persecution, but they're necessary for our government to function under the Constitutuion.

If christians choose to violate our 1st amendment then they should be persecuted to the fullest extent of the law. To claim that there is overwhelming pressure from society which keeps christians from practicing their faith is preposterous.

How are they violating "your" 1st amendment? By putting up mangers celebrating Jesus' birthday on Christmas, a federal holiday? Is this actually serious?
But you're right it's ok if these are instances of persecution, it is only against Christians, 1st amendment protection isn't afforded to them, only "your" camp is afforded protection.
You know who else allowed for religious persecution so the government could function? Stalin, Hitler, Saddam... you are in good company.
