The Trump Administration is Failing to Document "Anti-Christian Bias" Concerns Because There is No Anti-Christian Bias in America

Trump Administration Refuses to Document "Anti-Christian Bias"Concerns 

While it is true that the number of Americans connected to a Christian church in some way, whether in active participation as a member, or simply considering themselves "affiliated" or as part of past family tradition, is in relatively rapid decline, it is an observable fact that there is no anti-Christian bias anywhere in our society that has had even the remotest impact on churches and their mission and purpose.  In fact, I can say with confidence that one of the most easily provable facts about American culture and society is the privilege and favor that is given to white, Protestant Americans over all other elements or segments of society.  

The problem is that the privilege which has been extended, which is a violation of the Constitution's separation of church and state and establishment clause in many cases, has been so much of a privilege, that the withdrawal of the privilege to get things back to equal and fair treatment is looked upon as bias, rather than simply as an adjustment being made where favor has been granted when it shouldn't have been.  Putting things in the perspective of religious neutrality is seen as anti-Christian bias, even though it is nothing close to that. 

Such claims require facts.  We already know that virtually every claim Trump has made, this time or last time he was in office, is a baseless lie.  He simply asserts that something is true, in order to justify taking some kind of action that he wants to take.  His facts and figures are not factual, they are made-up lies.  And one of the biggest lies he tells is about a supposed "anti-Christian bias" that exists somewhere in the United States.  

The question is, where is it?  

White Christians are still the most favored and most benefitted group of individuals in American society and culture.  Of course, there are people who disagree with their theology, or with the manner in which they practice their faith.  But point me to any place in the country where there is any evidence at all of an anti-Christian bias?  Where are Christians discriminated against in hiring practices?  In housing?  In the marketplace?  Where is there any restriction at all on any religious practice, or on the presence of Christian witness and testimony in public?  Churches and the businesses they own and operate are free from any restrictions, based on their heavy use of the first amendment separation of church and state, especially when it suits them.  

So point to a single example of anti-Christian bias that has had any effect at all on the free exercise of religion.  Just one.  

Trump is lying about this, just like he lies about everything else. 

Specific to the Federal Government, There is No Anti-Christian Bias

There's no documented anti-Christian event where violence has been turned against Christians who have then been left without government protection of their rights.  During the Biden Administration, which is getting the blame, I can't think of a single incident where there was any violence at all that could be remotely connected to an anti-Christian bias.  

I can, however, immediately remember the violent attack against the Capitol on January 6th, involving hundreds of people wearing Jesus t-shirts, carrying Christian banners and flags and wearing and carrying crosses.  It's hard to call those anti-Patriots Christian, since there's not anything in the Christian gospel about donning your Jesus t-shirt, grabbing your Bible, putting on your gold cross and going out to violently attack people because they were doing their job under the law.  Those were not Christians, in any Biblical or spiritual sense of the term.  

But I digress.  

Any accusation pointing to anti-Christian bias during the Biden administration requires proof.  And those working hard at looking for it, and probably trying to manufacture it somehow, have produced not a single shread of evidence to prove the allegation.  

And there's just a little bit of irony here in the fact that for Trump, who openly denies a Biblical Christian confession, and sticks to his worldliness, Christian faith is about politics and political advantage, not a spiritual relationship with God.  He wouldn't know what anti-Christian bias even looked like, because he doesn't know anything about being Christian.  

There isn't an example of such bias because it doesn't exist.  

Tell the Truth

Christians, particularly white, conservative, Evangelical types, are the most privileged population group in ths country.  Most of the bigotry and racism that exists in our culture is a product of the skewed version of the populist version of the Christian gospel that conservative Christians preach and promote.  The general reaction to that in the culture at large is resentment, and rejection of the message by simply avoiding any kind of participation or contact with them.  As far as the government is concerned, the expectation is religious neutrality, and that's what they claim is anti-Christian bias.  

I really have no idea where all of this is headed, but I do know that the conservative, Evangelical branch of American Christianity that is prone to right wing extremism is not doing this country any favors by helping hand it over to a dictatorship from which they think they are going to benefit.
