| Christian Persecution in Iraq is much worse than most people think, according to a report from the Christian Post.
“The situation is more than desperate,” said White, pastor of 1,300-member St. George’s Anglican Church in Baghdad. White’s firsthand account of the plight of Christians on the ground included a report that 36 members of his own church were kidnapped. Only one has been released so far since the church found enough money to pay his ransom. White and others also reported that Dora, Iraq has seen many incredibly violent acts against Christians in the last few months. Almost all the churches have been bombed and burned. Almost all Christians have been forced to leave their homes after receiving death threats. |
Somehow, this just doesn’t seem right (or even to be expected) in a country “liberated” and “dominated” and “secured” by the United States.
Why is it so?
C’mon Mark, you taught us better than that! Don’t you know the muslim faith is one of peace. Why what you reported there is nothing but right wing conspirisy (sp?)! Okay, enough with the sarcasm now! I hope all is well with your family.
We’re well enough and hope you folks are even better. 🙂
