If you don't think MAGA parents wouldn't force this on their children, you need to look up the history of MAGA and MAGA-types
Helicopter parenting is at an all time high. The same parents are loading Life360 onto their kids' phones and expecting them to keep it installed after turning 18.
You didn't answer my question and went around it with a politically correct socially acceptable platitude. Like how when people asked "if they think black lives matter" and they answered "I think all lives matter".
Because I'm not for or against religion, so I think it's equally important to be able to ridicule all aspects of the discussion.
To directly answer your question - yes, a very strong yes. But that also applies to all religions, and all of anti-religion. Anything else is disingenuous and hypocritical
Christian values have nothing to do with low crime rates, high standards of living, and scientific achievements. Just look at the Philippines. A country way more Christian than any European country or the United States. There is high levels of crime in some areas, very poor standards of living in most of the country, and almost no scientific achievements compared to the west.
The main difference is cultural. In the Philippines we have a culture where people give their resources to past generations rather than saving and investing for the future. Then when parents die you're left with nothing and now your kids have to provide for you or you starve to death. Its a never ending cycle unless you're lucky enough to have parents that refuse you provide for them.
This cultural practice, which is not unique to the Philippines, leads to poverty which leads to low standards of living, crime, and lagging scientific achievement and innovation.

That's exactly how the European welfare state works except it's the government managing it for everyone, instead of each individual family for their own like in Philippines.

And the end result will be the same in EU like in Philippines except much delayed since the EU's stronger economy and mass migration allows it to keep borrowing like crazy and kick the can down the road but the house of cards will collapse regardless.
Christians are not being victimized by other people calling them stupid or whatever. We have religious freedom, people are allowed to believe whatever they want. That doesn't mean that everyone has to keep silent, though.
Ironically, the only people victimizing Christians are grifters like this dude, who promise and sell them something they don't need and that won't work. This phone network grift is no different than those TV pastors who own private jets.
