Your reminder that the most-persecuted ethnicity on the globe are the Christians. Their worst tormentors are those who hold to the totalitarian ideologies of fundamentalist Islam and communism. Many countries that appeal to our support on social media, are merciless toward the Christians within their own borders. Do not be fooled. This is why I Nostr. ✝️ Christians need free speech. And we need it more than anyone else. Don't let them silence the Church. Do not forget your brothers and sisters in Christ. Let them be heard. Let them speak. Amen. image #christian #catholic

My parents in law have lived in one of the countries coloured orange for over 10 years. They are white / British / non practicing catholic. Other than access to alcohol being more difficult than in a β€˜western’ country they have never felt any kind of persecution. The previous ruler was also very pro British.
Fundamentalist Christians are just as bad as fundamentalist Muslims. Could easily make a flipped map that shows the opposite of this in terms of pursecution of Muslims/Islamophobia. Seriously though, Ethiopia is a majority Christian country. And Egypt has a massive and highly influintial Christian minority. This reads more like a Catholic vs Orthidox debate that interfaith issue. 🀨
1) Don't be silly. 2) It, unfortunately, doesn't require Muslims to be in the majority of the entire country, for them to persecute Christians. Just look at Boko Haram. Islam has been in Ethiopia since Mohammed, and the east is majority Muslim. image There is sectarian fighting within the Orthodox sects, but that doesn't mean there is no Muslim persecution. 3) Islam has been spreading in all of these countries and Christians are often forced to leave. Egypt is a rare, recent counter-example, moving from place 25/50 to place 40/50 on the persecution list, after the Muslim Brotherhood government was overthrown. (Reminder to everyone that Hamas is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood.)
LOL last I checked, no Muslims persecuted Jesus or his disciples, instead praise him and have him as one of their religious leaders, like Muhammad. "Fundamental Islam" is equivalent to "fundamental Christianity" and if you don't know that back story, I have a whole dark ages and Crusade to tell you about. I'm not Muslim, or Abrahamic, but it's pretty clear out of all three which is the closest to Abrahamic teachings.
Brah, you don't know what you don't know. As I've said before, we are being robbed by the state of Israel rn, the Holy Land is under attack and being, literally, taken over.
