Terrible Elitist Mindset



In a nation founded by Christians for Christians, a terrible elitist mindset is arising!

Christians "Should be Eradicated":

Researchers Document Anti-Christian Agenda Among Powerful Elite - The New American
A student is punished for refusing to "stomp on Jesus," two men are arrested for reading the Bible aloud near a government building, a school "purges" Christian works from its library.

Critics asserting the existence of an institutional anti-Christian bias, and a resultant war on the faith, have often been labeled paranoid. But now two University of North Texas sociologists have produced research showing that just such an agenda exists among America's most powerful people.

Professors George Yancey and David Williamson shared their findings in their newly released book SO MANY CHRISTIANS, SO FEW LIONS: Is There Christianophobia in the United States?

The researchers say that while Christianophobia - which the sociologists define as "unreasonable hatred or fear of Christians" - isn't common among common people, it does characterize those in the upper echelons of American society. It's intense, too.

The book's title was apparently inspired by elitist interviewees lamenting how there were "so few lions," referencing the Roman Empire's practice of throwing Christians into an arena to be slaughtered by the wild cats. One respondent even remarked that Christians "should be eradicated without hesitation or remorse."

This is something about which Christians "should be concerned," reports the Christian Post, on a warning Yancey issued in an e-mail interview, "because those with 'Christianophobia' tend to be powerful elites with influence in certain important areas, such as higher education."
