Two local young Muslims going for Friday prayers to their mosque in Pakistan's Lahore city beat up and set fire to a 14-year-old Christian boy after stopping him and asking his religious affiliation, according to a Christian group.
The victim, identified only as Nuaman, is being treated at Meo Hospital in Lahore in Punjab province, according to a Christian group, The Voice Society, in Pakistan. He has burns covering more than 55 percent of his body.
The Christian boy was coming from a tailor's shop when he was attacked. It was time for Muslim prayers on Friday when the incident happened.
Two Muslims, who have not been identified, stopped him and asked what his religion was.
"I told them that I am Christian. They started beating me, when I tried running, both boys started following me through the street and then they threw Kerosene on me and burnt me," Nuaman was quoted as saying. "I kept on running when a heap of sand came my way, I lied down on the sand [A] few people from the community [extinguished] fire by putting sand on me. I became unconscious, and they called 1122 Emergency medical helpline and called [for] an ambulance."
Nuaman, who lives with his paternal uncle, said he does not know the attackers but can identify them with their faces.
The boy's father died when he was 4, and his mother remarried.
The attack could be a reaction to a recent incident of lynching by some Christians of two suspected terrorists following a terror attack on a church in the same city, the group said.
Two suicide blasts hit the Christ Church and Catholic Church of Youhanabad Christian Colony in Lahore on March 15, killing 17 people. A Pakistani Taliban splinter group claimed responsibility for the attack, which left another 80 people injured.
Thousands of Christians rioted on the streets of Lahore following the attack, demanding more protection from the government. Reports said that two suspected terrorists were beaten to death and burned during the riots. The men were apparently in custody and were being shifted to a vehicle when the protesters got to them, beat them severely, tied them with a rope and set them on fire.
After the lynching incident, general hatred against the Christian minority has increased, the group believes.
Okay, I’ll bite.
I don’t think God likes what is going on, but what would be your first (1, 2, & 3) moves to end Islamic violence directed at Christians in places where ISIS has invaded?
I don’t necessarily disagree, but I don’t know if there is a good game plan to end this.
He wants to transform the free world into an Islamic caliphate where Muslims are free to mutilate, torture, and murder Christians.
Are all of these religion of peace atrocities made known to CAIR??????
ROP strijes again....maybe the DiC can tell us again how peaceful they all are
Destroy Islam.
Or made known to Governor Branstad (R-IA) since he’s so into muslim proclamations.
Mecca first,
Medina

which ever dog Yelps loudest.
Easy as 1,2,3.
So, your idea would be to just lay Christian children’s’ heads on chopping blocks and let muzzles have their fun?

1 John 3
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
If you don’t like the results of sin, then you have a very detailed instruction book on how to destroy it.
I bet the left are blaming the victim- hopefully this child’s pain will subside quickly,- nothing much worse than burns as far as pain goes-
When asked what religion, the response should perhaps be “I’m a Christian by religion, and smith and Wesson sharpshooter, concealed weapons carrier by profession... Anymore questions?”
I’m not sure if you take out those first, or give a good object lesson first. Then explain what the object lesson means.
just dreaming ,
Me too, more or less.
Something needs to change. Those folks have no respect for us. Honestly, I think it’s time we put the fear of our God back in them.
