It's a strange phenomena. The majority in the US ARE Christian (though maybe not too devout?).
I am a Christian, but I suck at it. Tongue


Which side feels more threatened by the other? And WHY?
A good question.
But I see Christianity (and Christians in particular) being attacked/ mocked/ ridiculed everywhere. Not Islam or Confucianism or not Sikhs or Buddhists... just the Christians. People are afraid to announce their Christianity because they fear being mocked/ ridiculed/ discriminated against because of it.
Hell, if one claims to be a Christian, they are immediately labeled as a "homophobe" ... just like when a person announces they are a conservative, they get immediately labeled a "racist", etc. ad nauseum.

I don't know, in the uk at least there certainly seems to be more attacking of Islam for one, and more privilege afforded to any religion over any kind of non belief. Of course I can't speak for other countries. Are there not large parts of the US where atheism is a dirty word also?
