I think that Christians in this country don't know what persecution is. I greatly admire those in the Middle East who are practicing Christians - they literally are putting their lives on the line for their faith. It takes a lot of guts IMO.

I used to have some very interesting conversations with an Iranian Christian (actually both him and his wife) at a little place I stopped and got my beer on the way home from work.

All religions claim to be religions of peace. And then they are used as reasons for war.

They have a real bad problem with extreme abuse of human rights. There's no consequence without conscience. Even the so-called "moderates" (liberal term?) are pretty abusive by modern societal standards. The worst part about it is the state sponsorship of it around the world. At least this particular state won't stand for it. Or so it appears.

All religions are fucked. It's a matter of degree how antihumanity they are.

The Copic Christians are constantly persecuted and harrased....
