But sometimes I wonder myself, if the Muslims “respect” Jesus and Mary, then why there is so many attacks and suffering which includes dying as marytrs Christians in the Middle Eastern countries?

That's easy. Our media are controlled by folks who loathe the Muslims and really dislike Arabs. I LIVED over there and saw it all the time from Western media. It used to annoy me because the Western media saw NOTHING good, EVER from ANYthing middle eastern.
Now that just isn't normal. Every culture has SOMEthing good about it, SOMETHING.

Our media will NEVER say ANYthing good about ANYthing Muslim, Arab or middle eastern. They just won't. It's a shame that there are such BLINDERS on the media, especially the written media.

Oh well. Not my problem.

I NEVER, ever, saw or heard anything disrespectful about Jesus or Mary in the KSA, ever. I know this will be hard for you to believe but the Western media even, on occasion, EXAGGERATED stuff about the Arabs, Islam, Muslims and the middle east.

Jesus was "Issa" and the Saudis thought he was a very holy man, the Son of God even, and did many good things. But He was not Allah. There was nothing I could say. I couldn't ask for more.

We Christians were "people of the Book" (Bible) and were good. None of the Muslim countries ever hired Hindus. They DID hire Muslim and Christian Indians but NO Hindus, as they were NOT "people of the Book."

Still how Muslims treat Christians in the Middle East puts into question the “respect” issue towards Jesus and Mary.

The sad thing is that these communites go way back to the days of the apostles.
