Double the number of Christians killed worldwide last year

Yes, the shooting terror attack that killed 49 Muslims is a tragedy, but what about Christians killed by Muslims? This was reported Jan 2018......

More than 3,000 Christians were killed worldwide last year for their faith, twice as many as the previous year, a report by the charity Open Doors has found.

Of the 11 worst countries for Christians to live in, all are now classed as places of extreme persecution – more than ever before in 26 years of the World Watch List, which is published annually by the charity. Open doors compiles data on five spheres of life – private, family, community, national and church life – to reach a list of 50 countries where persecution of Christians is most extreme.

North Korea remains number one for Christian persecution in their 2018 report, followed closely by Afghanistan and Somalia, where Christians are routinely targeted by violent Islamic mililtants.

Their latest report highlights in particular unprecedented levels of persecution in Egypt, where last year more than 200 Christians were driven out of their homes and 128 were killed for their faith. Egypt is home to the largest Christian community in the Middle East, the majority of whom are Orthodox. On Christmas Day, Christians attended services across the country accompanied by soldiers amid rising threat levels. Last Easter two church bombings killed 49 people.

God only knows how many Christians died at the hands of ISIS filth.

I bet this one shooting gets more coverage than all of those killings combined.

Sickening.

I don’t condone what this guy did but let’s be honest, likely NONE of those killed would be our friends.

Many of them might want our death.

i’ll sleep ok tonight.

I guess it is analogous to the blacks killing whites and gets little press but when a white person kills a black its press is front page and racism.

I don’t think ANYONE should be murdered for their religious beliefs!

I don’t think this guy murdered all those people for their religious beliefs as he wasn’t particularly religious himself. He just didn’t want his nation infiltrated by a people who’s political doctrine is to kill anyone who isn’t a muslim....and who have clearly stated their intentions are to change nations political systems to their laws.

I find it strange that all kinds of people are weeping for over the death of 49 pedophile worshiping practitioners of a death cult that has murdered millions of people who disagree with them. Sorry, I can’t find a single cell in my body that feels an ounce of sorrow for them. After practicing, or through their silence, condoning the massacre of Christians throughout the world, my give a Sh!t O’meter just isn’t registering. They are finally reaping the whirlwind of the hate they’ve been sowing for years. In my book, 49 jihadis/future jihadis are dead, and I care not. If that makes me a ass in your eyes, so be it. I’m good with it.

No western nation has or ever will assimilate its muslims.

Since republics depend on some commonality in religion and traditions, the seeding of muzzies around our nation is clear intent to destroy the US.

And how many of the 3000 christians killed mostly by muslims were eulogized by the leftist media in this world? None. Leftists want christians dead and leftists control most mass media in this world. They ignore murdered christians and scream the loudest when muslims are killed.

You’re right; we are clearly at the same point as we were with the American Indians over a century ago. Either white settlers were going to live on the land, or it was going to be set aside as an Indian reservation. There was no way the settlers could cope with the Indian raids and accompanying murders and mutilations; it was one or the other - no “co-existence”.

They aren’t here to assimilate.....there intentions are to convert western nations to Islam. When you speak with them about Jesus they acknowledge him but there interest is to convert you.
