Michael at Internet Monk asks an interesting question on his blog: Are American Christians Persecuted?.
Some of the commentators seem to think that they are but I'm much more in agreement with the original blog post.

About Me
- PamBG
- I am Pam Berardinelli Garrud (PamBG), a 54 year old wife, daughter and beloved child of God. Ordained as a minister (pastor) in the Methodist Church of Great Britain, in 2009 I re-immigrated back to Northeast Ohio with my London-born husband after 20 years residence in the UK. I am seeking to serve God by loving God and my neighbor in the ministry of hospital chaplaincy. Prior to becoming a minister, I worked in the pensions industry.

Like Michael, I live in Kentucky, in the heart of the so-called "Bible Belt." Here, far from being "persecuted," most Christians enjoy a social advantage by virtue of professing Christianity. In fact, too often they wield their faith as a weapon against those who either profess no faith, or at least practice their faith in a way deemed defective.
In other words, far from being subject to persecution, in Kentucky many Christians engage in the sort of persecution that they profess to be victim of.
