The answer to this thread is very simple. It's not asking if Christians are discriminated against, or if there is any evidence of such a thing happening. It's asking if anyone feels like they are. Christians love to feel discriminated against. It's part of their history. Their origin is steeped in it. It's part of their identity. Of course, nobody has actually been discriminating against them for a millennium and a half, but they love to feel discriminated against, even while they're trampling on everyone else.
That's how not being able to strip gay people of their rights feels like discrimination to them. That's how privilege can twist a person's perception. Equality is a step down, and wanting to feel oppressed makes it even farther out of whack.
It would be astoundingly easy to prove the existence of a god. Literally any evidence of divine intervention would suffice. Intercessory prayer working, actual spontaneous creation of life, natural disasters actually being linked with adherence to biblical rules, sightings of angels, prophets publicly performing miracles, you name it...

You cannot disprove the existence of God any more than anyone can prove it. It is a belief. Asking someone to prove something that is by definition un-provable is pathetic. You really seem to have this complex about you that whatever you believe and cannot prove is right and fact, and everyone who believes differently is stupid and should be mocked. Not much more pathetic of an argument than the one you put forth.
And before you cry about Christians again, yes it is just as pathetic when they mock your beliefs too. But that doesn't make you any less pathetic.
