Isn’t Iran an Islamic Caliphate?

Why would Iran be taking the Olympic Committee to task for
dishonoring the God of Christians?

I don’t think they believe in the Holy Trinity. They do not
consider Jesus to be the Son of God, or a party to the Holy
Trinity. Why would they care about the Last Supper
depiction?

This report doesn’t make sense to me.

Further: Christians are under persecution in Iran

Muslims believe Jesus to be a prophet but not on the same level of Muhammad. They don’t like to see one of their prophets mocked like that. I applaud them for this

Mussies say Jesus is a Prophet.

Although they do not recognize Jesus Christ as the Son of God, the consider Him as a Holy Prophet.

Your concerns are also mine.

I wonder if the report is genuinely from Iran or some more BS people made up.

Just about anything a person hears, reads or sees regarding news is subject to being propaganda.

Iran is very liberal for that part of the world. Christians, Jews, and others actually get to practice their faith. Not many Islamic countries allows Jews, Iran does.

Jesus is still respected in the Islamic faith, he is still considered the Messiah in the Quran.

I don't know of any Churches in Saudi Arabia or Temples.

They do consider Jesus a prophet just as the Jews do. Most religions do cross over each other.

Jesus is a prophet in the Koran. Who knows? The media has conditioned us to hate Iran.

I do not believe they consider themselves a caliphate.

Khomeini actually went and wished the hostages a Merry Christmas and emphasized the Islamic belief that Jesus was the greatest prophet until Mohammed and His message was co opted by Paul.
