"Ask her directly which has precedence -- her religion or her country."

A lot of Christians would say that their religion - their allegiance to what they believe to be the laws of God - takes precedence over their country. One hopes not to have to make that choice. During the Nazi era, the heroes were not those who identified Christianity with Nazism, but those who courageously said that Nazism was not compatible with Christianity. (And, no, I am not comparing the USA to Nazi Germany.) I am saying that in some circumstances, any real Christian might have to put God over country.

If the local Christian leaders said to start killing innocent citizens, I would like to think most Christians would leave at least the church.

Ask her what she will do when (not if) the imam says to kill you, your family and your friends.
