Christians Most Persecuted

[Polaris]

Yeah, like others, I'm no fan of the Vatican, but I think the Pope is technically accurate with this statement.

I remember back in the '90s when the Taliban in Afghanistan were hanging Christian missionaries from construction cranes as public displays. Bibles burned in public bonfires. (We really need to get these people HBO or something.)

There's no denying that the West gives non-Christians plenty of grief, but those Islamist theocracies really get down to business. Not to mention China and its state anti-religion policy.

That would have been an effort in futility. In between the hangings and the burnings they were smashing the TV sets.

I ran across a great line in a reply to a Slacktivist posting: "It continues to astound me when these people see a system in which nobody is supposed to be given special treatment, and see it as a personal attack on themselves. If they're not given deference, then they're being persecuted."

That's a great article. Thanks for sharing
