Episcophobia,
To be Episcophobic
Hatred of Christians and
Christianity.
Distinct in its acknowledgment of the 360 Million persecuted Christians across the globe, as opposed to a focus on the western world.
Used
particularly against people who assume all Christian’s are white
republicans and in doing so, undermine the beliefs and faith of millions of diverse Christians across the globe.
Emma: I hate
Christianity, it is a white mans religion, Christians should be ostracised.
Emily: Hey, you have a right to your own opinion, but don’t be Episcophobic, millions of Christian’s are suffering persecution and death for no reason other than their faith. Just because some Republicans have twisted the teachings, it is not reflective of the diverse community of Christians around the globe.
Emma: I don’t care, Christian’s suck.
Emily: Episcophobia is often overlooked because there is a heavy focus on western, capitalist
Christianity, which preaches excess and the
prosperity gospel. This allows the persecution and routine executions do Christians in other nations to go unnoticed, it’s a harmful thing to do and very much problematic.
