Will Christians see advice against shaking hands as an attack on Christianity?

Asked by JLeslie (65425points) December 27th, 2020 from iPhone

Please no attacks on Christians on this Q. This is an inquiry only, not a judgment.

It appears to me some Christian sects have taken to feeling Christianity in America is under attack, and some leaders both Christian and political, are marketing that their religion and beliefs are under attack.

Common practice during a service or mass the parishioners are instructed to shake hands with the people near them.

Is there a chance that some Christians might see advice to stop shaking hands in church as an assault on their religion? What if there is advice forever more to get rid of the stranger handshake in the United States? Could that be twisted into anti-Christian rhetoric? Anti-American?
