““Third, though oppression to the level of ‘being thrown in jail’ for one’s Christian faith may not yet be apparent in the United States, history confirms that religious oppression in any given nation can be just the passage of a few laws away. Within six years of Adolph Hitler’s selection as Germany’s leader, the nation was imprisoning and killing its own people.””
