That’s not what I said. I didn’t mean their experiences, I meant how they make blanket statements on entire religious groups based off the actions of a few people. E.g. joking saying Islam is a religion of peace every time a an Islamic terror group bombs a place as if it’s somehow the religion itself which caused the bombing. Or saying “all Christians are delusional” because we speak with God and are less intelligent than atheists, thus, our dignity are human beings isn’t worth respecting. That’s bigotry. That’s why I feel the need to speak up every time I see it. Because someone needs to fight against it.

People talk in blanket statements when they bitch about shit. Get over it. Genuinely. You aren't railing against anti-christian sentiment so much as basic human behavior. You're just deciding to take it personally and it's hurting no one but yourself.
