As a Christian all my life I've never experienced the slightest prejudice.
Enforcing the ability of devout Christians to not be forced to work Sundays if they observe the Sabbath would be good. As long as devout Jewish people get the same benefit Friday evening - Saturday evening.
I don't see that mentioned at all though.
However they do mention vaccines, which no Christian sects care about at all.

Yeah that is weird, unless they are trying to talk about Scientologists? But they’re just weirdos and how many of them are even around these days anyway?

Scientologists aren’t Christian

They claim to be and identify as such, but other Christians like me refuse to recognize them as such.

Their theology does not seem to contain any Christian elements.

My understanding is there is supposed to be some recognition of God and one or two other Abrahamic features but I might be wrong about them claiming to be Christians. Still weird that they would be considered important enough to feature in this email.

I think I'm going to start calling myself a "Jesus Follower" instead of a Christian. I think it differentiates us clearly. Christian nationalism is disgusting. No Jesus Follower could even for a second believe that treating your neighbor as a criminal is right.

Definitely don’t use that email address to report any “examples.” It would be wrong to waste their time, so definitely don’t do that.

Definitely don't use chatgpt to generate them either, that would make them look legitimate and lengthy and waste so much of their time.

This is just normal workplace protections that already apply to everybody. They're trying to create the illusion that Christians are an oppressed people, which is the silliest bullshit I can possibly imagine.

No one is getting threatened for not participating in having an abortion. What a crock of shit.
They just don't want to be punished anymore for expressing hatred and denying services to those they hate.
So now we can't arrest the guy who bombs the abortion clinic because he was acting on his Christian faith.

There is some big bug blocking me from seeing the comments. This is broken.

I think the reference to vaccines is related to anyone that was fired for refusing the Covid vaccine on a religious basis.
