Not just fleeing the Middle East:
It’s not just the Mideast from which Christians are being driven.
“Christians are being driven from the Middle East in suffering,” Pope Francis said in a video message yesterday as French Cardinal Phillipe Barbarin visited the Iraqi city of Irbil, where thousands of Christians have taken refuge.
“And from America; and from the military, who need God’s protection, as we do in the USA,” adds Fred Abel of jfredabel@gmail.com.
Abel is spot on.
The main difference between Christians being driven out of the Middle East and those being driven out of America is that the American pattern is so very much more subtle.

Ooooops!
Christians are being driven out of America by their own free will because they don’t stand up against the minorities who drive them out.

On the head.
Catholics THRIVE on persecution. I get BLASTED with regularity by some...people here. Not that some Catholic blasting hurts me at all. In fact, the MORE I get blasted for my Catholic faith, the MORE I realize that the OTHER Christian person ISN'T secure in HIS/HER faith.
99.9% of the posters here allow ANY faith, with all the blessings in the world. The OTHER .1% is just unhappy and THAT makes me pity them. PITY sends them ballistic, so then what?
GOD BLESS YOU. Who can't use God's blessing? I can use it VERY much myself, continually, 24/7, until I die...and will probably need it the most THEN. :o)
SORRY for the length. I just got carried away. Don't feel that you have to answer ANY of it. CARRIED AWAY. I AM hungry. I should have eaten first!
What minorities are driving us out? MOST Mexican, Central/South Americans Hispanics, are Catholics. Mexicans need work here because they can work HERE three months and live off those wages for the other nine months in Mexico.
And yes, I am aware of the Protestant, Spanish-speaking populace. They are Christians so they wouldn't "drive" off any U.S. Christians either.
Blacks here either, for the most part are also Christians, many Baptists, I understand. The few who might have become Muslims will grow old and die. Being a black Muslim here is still tied to, I think, the the Nation of Islam.
The Nation of Islam (NOI) is a syncretic new religious movement founded in Detroit, Michigan by Wallace D. Fard Muhammad on July 4, 1930.
The Nation of Islam's stated goals are to improve the spiritual, mental, social, and economic condition of African Americans in the United States and all of humanity. Its critics accuse it of being black supremacist and antisemitic.
THAT movement sure fizzled out, didn't it?
Some years ago we started getting Palestinian Arab Catholics. They ran many "mom 'n pop" stores and did quite well. I went on a Holy Land tour three years ago and our tour director, Steve Ray, a former Evangelical Baptist minister-turn Catholic, told us much about the ARAB Christians, almost all Roman Catholic. I didn't know that there were so many ARAB Catholics. I thought, incorrectly, that all Arabs were Muslims.
The LARGEST Muslim country in the world is INDONESIA = Oriental Asians, 204,847,000 Oriental Muslims. Go figure.
"Oriental" designates certain facial features that African and Caucasian people DO NOT have.
http://factsanddetails.com/asian/cat62/sub407/item2608.html
1. People classified as Asians are physically different in some ways than people of European descent. In almost all cases Asians have straight, black hair and dark eyes. They also tend to have less body hair, less facial hair, flatter faces, smaller noses, wider cheekbones, and "shovel-shaped" incisor teeth (slightly scooped out shape of back side of the front teeth).
2. Asians are less likely to get some diseases than Westerners and more likely to get others. Many Asians get acne at a later age than Westerners. Fewer Asian men go bald than European men. There also appears to be less Asians with grey hair, but it is not clear whether this is because they get grey hair at a later age or dye their hair.
3. Northern Asians are generally stockier and have lighter skin and thinner eyes than southern Asians. All skin contains about the same number of melanocytes but the amount of melanin they produce varies. Dark skinned people produce more and light skin people produce less.
4. Some people think that difference between Asians and Europeans have existed for some times. While holding a cast made of Peking Man in the 1930s, Chinese archeologist Jia Lan told National Geographic, "This skull has some characteristic of modern Chinese people. For instance, the nose bone of Peking man was low and cheeks were flat, as in Asians today."
5. In 2005, scientists discovered a tiny mutation in a gene that plays a key role in determining skin color, with Caucasians inheriting a different version than other groups. The gene---named slc245a5---was discovered in a cancer research study using zebrafish, which have the same gene and come in dark and light skin versions. Slc245a is believed to be responsible for between 25 and 38 percent of color variation between Europeans and Africans.
6. Researchers found that people in Africa and China have one variation of slc245a5 and people of European ancestry have another. The research indicated that the dark version was the original and the light version evolved as humans migrated from Africa into northern areas and is consistent with a theory that lighter skin evolved as an adaption to weaker sunlight.
7. The small webs of skin over the corners of Asian eyes are described by scientists as epicanthic folds. It is not understood why Asians have them and Europeans don't. Most Asians have a dry kind of ear wax that is relatively odorless while Africans and Europeans have wet and sticky ear wax that gives off more smell. Bwaahahaha! FEE-FI-FO-FUM, I smell the ear wax of an EuropeeeeUM.
8. Many Asians also don't have a crease around the top of their eyelid like Westerners do. Some Asian women consider and eylid with a crease to be more beautiful than an eyelid without one and they spend a lot of money for "double slit operatation," to have a crease surgically insisiced into their eyelid. Many Asians also consider round eyes to be more beautiful than almond-shaped eyes. Some Asians prefer glasses with wide, narrow frames that look better with their eyes.
Most Chinese who wear glasses can't keep their glasses off the edge of their nose...as Chinese have no big honker NOSE BRIDGE like non-Chinese to keep their glasses up on the bridge of the nose.
9. Asians are more comfortable squatting and crouching than Westerners. In many Asian countries people relax and rest for long periods of time in a squatting position that many Westerners find unbearbaly uncomfortable after only a few seconds. Some scientists claim that the squatting position is better for digestion. Many Asians also spend more time sitting on the floor than on chairs and couches, which Westerners prefer.
10. Individual strands of Chinese women’s hair are circular and wider and more resistant to breaking than the oval hairs of Western women. Chinese hair has higher pigment concentrations that makes it glossier and shinier than the hair of Western women and less likely to turn white. Chinese hair is less dense than Western hair with fewer hairs per square centimeter of scalp.
11. When stripped of its natural pigment, Asian hair has reddish undertones while European hair has yellow-orange undertones. As a result hair dyes for Asian women are made with green that cancels out red while those for European women are made with violet that cancels out the yellow-orange undertones.
12. More than 150 million Chinese men aged 25 to 35, or about 40 percent of the male population in that age group, suffer from baldness or significant hair loss. Fast-paced living and long periods of stress are blamed for high rates of hair loss. Many that have hair that goes grey or white prematurely dye it. BIG business, dyeing Chinese hair, I've read.
13. Many Asian women eschew the tanned sporty look and favor the white, frail look. Pale skin is considered beautiful and has traditionally been associated with sophistication and wealth while brown skin traditionally has been a sign of being poor and working outside in the sun.
Chinese women often refuse to go out in the summer unless they have an umbrella, a makeshift cape or some other kind of skin protection. One 27-year-old accountant told the Times of London, “I prefer women with light skin. Westerners look healthy with bronzed skin, but Asians look dirty.”
14. Blood type: Type B blood is more common among East Asians and Africans than it is among Europeans. Asians generally do not have Rh-negative blood and hospitals do not store it for transfusions. Foreign travelers who have O Rh negative are in big trouble because they can only accept O negative blood, which generally isn't available.
15. Deodorants are sometimes difficult to find in Asia although they have become more common in recent years, in part through marketing efforts by deodorant makers. Body odor is produced apocrine glands in the armpits and genital area. Men have more and larger apocrine glands than women, and Caucasians and Africans have more and larger glands than Asians. Thus, since Asians have less body hair, they would perspire differently.
16. I didn't know this: ****North Asians have lower levels of muscle-building testosterone than Europeans. Some Asian athletes have taken testosterone-like steroids as "a way of leveling the playing field."
Wouldn't that be called "cheating"????
=========================================
17. Oriental intolerance to alcohol
About half of all Asians lack an active enzyme which breaks down acetaldehyde, a toxic chemical derived from ethanol found in most forms of alcohol. As a result, when they drink they often get sick to their stomach or turn red in the face. Most westerners have this enzyme, and consequently they need to drink much more to get drunk or turn red.
Some Asians turn bright red after only a few sips of alcohol. If they continue drinking they often vomit because their bodies reject the alcohol.
18. Mongolia Birth Marks
Almost all Japanese, Korean, Mongolians, and some Chinese are born with a Mongolian birthmark, a small patch of brown pigment located on their butts or lower back. The mark vary in size and usually disappear within a few years.
Indians in North, Central and South Americas also have these marks. Some scientists have suggested that these marks are evidence that almost all Japanese, Korean, Mongolians, and some Chinese are born with a Mongolian birthmark, a small patch of brown pigment located on their butts or lower back.
The mark vary in size and usually disappear within a few years. Indians in North, Central and South Americas also have these marks.
*****I guess this might be more evidence that the FIRST Americans were Asian-Siberian immigrants from ASIA, across the Bering Strait.
========================================
OTHER DIFFERENCES
19. Asians on average are also generally thinner and shorter than Westerners but they are getting taller and fatter. Some believe that at least some of the difference are explained by diet. Japanese today are around three inches taller than Japanese who grew up around World War II. Most scientist attribute the increase to nutritional changes, such as more milk and meat in their diets.
20. Breast shape and size, nipple color and shape, the form of a woman's labia and buttocks and the angle of man's erection also varies somewhat between races. by Richard Bernstein, author of Book: The East, the West, and Sex: A History of Erotic Encounters describes the women of Asia as “more plumlike than melonlike of breast, spare rather than full of buttocks and hips.”
21. Asian women generally have smaller breasts than Western women. Writer Paul Theroux once wrote that the brassier is "probably the most superfluous garment in China." Even so Wonder Bra developed a special product line for slim Asian women. An accountant in Hong Kong told Newsweek, "There's a strong desire to be sexy. People want to marry a good husband, and a push-up bra is part of the package to achieve that goal."
My question: What happens when hubby sees the saggy, little "plums" instead of the enormous pushed-up "melons"? Lol.
"Female Hong Kong accountant equates "push-up bra" to getting a "good" husband. Who says that American values are screwed up? :o)
Eventually ALL skin, male or female, gives way to GRAVITY.
Ah me. THEN we die and get to meet our Maker. Lord have mercy on us all.
Thank you all for getting this far. It was an EPIC.
With the word ‘minorities’ I did not mean racial minorities.
Atheists are minorities, muzzies are minorities, tree and weather huggers are minorities, and yet they have a influence on our legal system that is out of proportion of their numeric size.
I'm sorry but I just can't care about that and I'm not even sure that is true. Do you have any stats on that or is it just a gut feeling? I 'm not denigrating your gut feelings; I'm just not sure if they are correct.
In actuality my life is affected NOT AT ALL by anyone but the IR$.
AMAZING photo, sir! AMAZING.
I can't wait to see it myself - soon!
