In Indiana, the owners of Memories Pizza are said to be in hiding after death threats.
The offense that triggered hostility? Telling a TV news reporter that, because of their Christian beliefs, they would decline to cater a gay wedding if asked to do so.
Reminds me of some lyrics from Larry Norman from the early 1970s.
There are Christians in Russia, they meet underground,
In China they're killed when they're found.
And in Cuba the Christians live up in the hills
Because it's not safe in the towns.
And to think it might happen right here in America,
I know you think it's not true,
But it's happening to Christians right here in America,
Wait 'til it happens to you.
The Christians in Berkeley are passing out Bibles
And food to the hungry
They're hoping to help out the people this way.
But there are threats of the lives
Of their leaders and wives,
They're not welcome to stay.
And to think it might happen right here in America,
Maybe you think it's not true,
If you it's not happening to Christians right here in America,
Wait 'til it happens to you.
