5. Being shunned.

In the political arena, being classed with the non-believers. Considered not a real Christian. Considered a sell-out. Considered soft and weak.

At work, not being promoted or even retained by a conservative Christian boss.

There many reasons to be silent.

The conservative Christians have many favorite verses, but their fave of faves is "He who is not with us is against us."

I don't need to point out there are many fine exceptions to this rule of thumb.
