Are Christians Safe in Muslim Lands? Honestly?

[Karachiite]

I can't speak for Iraq but I do know that most Christians are safe in Pakistan as I'm half Christian myself. Yes there are religious fanatics but that's more in the rural areas. Minorities are 100% safe in urban cities.

 

[Rumporum]

All religions have killed their co-religionists, nothing new here!

And still do.............. Pakistan is prime example of this so is Iraq..and thats why the Gulf Arabs are scared of Iran

Nothing personal but would you like to elaborate a bit more on bold part? Half-Christian??? Why not be a 'Christian'? Why half?

Thanks for the re-analysis........... Judeo-Christian history is filled with the same . Just because it happened a while ago does nt make it go away! anyways............................... History of nations is filled with bloodshed for one reason or another.
The important thing is not to give up hope!

Ok so my Dad is Muslim and my mother is Christian but I really don't follow a particular faith. I'm just half christian by name. I'm not really into any religions. But I do occasionally follow the teachings of Buddha,Jesus and Prophet Muhammad.

Are you saying muslims who supported Desert Storm are 'crusaders'?

Whoever supported DS from ME were motivated by political ambitions - i do not fancy saddam hussian but he did manage to keep peace in his country.

Same question, except now we include al-Qaeda who killed Iraqi muslims.

Al Qaida is not an organization its a percentage of a generation who were brought up in war & misery , double standards and lack of opportunities.

We protected muslims there, remember?

Yes i am thankful for that - what about those who killed muslims they were also Christians !

{I hate saying it all Christian Muslim thing but its a drum that we have to beat.}

Then fight the Jews, why go after Christians?

What would be the difference between them and us ? btw Britts & Yanks were the ones who created this mess didn't they ?

Aahh...So all nominal 'Christian' countries have the same animosity against muslims.

I have Said before Gambit - i hate this topic !

Taliban supported al-Qaeda, who attacked US. Remember?

US - Pakistan and everyone who benefited from the fall of USSR are responsible for not disarming Mujahideen at that time & establishing a govt , provide education and facilities.

All of us are paying the price for cold war era mistakes - none of us are spare or are we ?

Pakistan has sustained 10 times more casualties than 9/11 , i do not find anything religious about The Taliban thing -

Your list is a very weak argument/justification for the retaliation against Christians.

Its my opinion NOT an Argument.

Non muslim were living in muslim ruled country peacefully with due respect .What now happing in some trouble torn muslim country are totally different . when the trouble will over any kind of attack on the security of non mulim will vanish .A true mulim can not harm any human being whether he is muslim or non muslim .

Regarding BB's post # 25: above :u cannot arm and then disarm a people..ever heard of "Come and take it" ( like it says in my avatar)
The mistake was for the US to walk away just like that, kinda actually cuz I remember they took the afghans to a tax payer paid disney land trip etc.
Not sure what the heck happened after that. But then who can talk sense into the state dept. These clowns do whatever the heck they want .............I want my tax $$$ to pay for social services and such not mis-adventures based on bad intel and foreign relation not in sync with reality.

I don't know about other states but in Pakistan the extremist and terrorism threat is for all religions. However the world is a dangerous place not because of Christians in Muslims hands rather Muslims in Jewish, Hindu and Christians hands, NO? It is the Western(christian+zionist) attitude towards muslims which paved way for terrorist organizations to thrive, and it's no secret. To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction so quit marginalizing Muslims and you will get same response, simple as that; give respect get respect.

And still do.............. Pakistan is prime example of this so is Iraq..and thats why the Gulf Arabs are scared of Iran

Shias were the first victim, far more than christians , in Iraq.
In media here they never care about it.
When not long time ago a buf of pelegrin people were killed, nothing even on most serious newspapers.

When there is one christian killed somewhere they make a big noise
especially in a country of majority of muslims.

Anyway this is very stupid what is happening in Iraq
but everyone knows it is the game of a very very few guys there
who want to create a terror

I am really sad i see on news here the call for making christians escape Iraq. this is scandalous.

Last point, christians are important part of our history. We need them to stay in the countries that they are really their country.

In Iran they have no problem: most of them being armenians
and armenians and iranians have very friendly history together
Jews are living in Esfahan for exemple i know many who are happy to be there even some of them were asked to go Israel for 10 000 USD help from Israel government: this is not normal: we need to keep our communauties which all are important for us.

More important, instead reporting "christians victimes in muslim countries" which are driving even worst picture of muslims
they should say the reality: "terror groups want to creat a confessional problem"
Media here are terribly oriented

But we have to strongly condemn and fight these people
and no pity! and we should strongly educate people there is no religion authorized to unrespect another
