I’m going to stand up and state they can be.

Years and years ago, after I was discovered reading a bible to work on the bus it soon got spread about the shop floor and being bullied became a common daily occurrence afterwards. A problem ignore by main manager as he didn’t want to upset the majority who were involved.
Same thing happened to a friend at another factory, as he was singled out for wearing a large cross on a chain. He was months later fired for taking too much time off work (a couple of weeks) to support his wife who had just lost their baby close to term. Bastards!
So like it or not Christians can be persecuted, and quite harshly. I wouldn’t say at the time we deserved special privileges, just equal rights to be left in peace as I’m damn sure the bullies were allowed with management knowledge to get away with anything they did.
