Persecution of Christians has existed since the days of the early church. And while Christians in the western world need not worry about being thrown to the lions, there are other sinister forms of persecution such as ridicule and having biblical principals that make up much of our public policy eroded and replaced by secularism.
From the articles:
Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. Matthew 24:9 NIV
From the articles:
A Christian attorney says the U.S. is not far behind Great Britain when it comes to the impact of what he describes as the "radical homosexual agenda." "Our Judeo-Christian founding is under assault," he contends, "and unless Christians get back about the business of standing firm for biblical principles in our culture and within public policy, then we can expect this kind of discrimination and persecution to continue and to ramp up right here in the United States."

The American Family Association is taking exception to a pilot for a new series on ABC.
The pilot, called "Good Christian B*tches," is based on a novel by the same name and centers on life of a "reformed" woman who returns to her hometown where she become the target of malicious gossip from women in the Christian community. Media reports say both religious and women's groups are "up in arms" over the show's title. It is time, says AFA president Tim Wildmon, for Christians to fight back. "This program would never be even considered by ABC if it were [called] 'Good Muslim B*tches' or 'Good Jewish B*tches' -- so it again proves the point that it's open season on Christians," he laments. "Any other group is protected, but Christians are not. Christians are, in fact, a target for Hollywood ."
Attorney: Expect anti-Christian discrimination to 'ramp up' in U.S.
AFA: Pilot for ABC series nothing but 'toxic waste'
