"There is no religious persecution in Europe or USA where most Christians are."
Of course there is religious persecution in Europe and America
It has recently been announced that there has been an increase in the vandalising of Jewish cemeteries and attacks on Jews in Europe, I belive a number of people were gunned down in a Jewish museum recently. Incidents like this are set to accelerate now that that nice Mr Farrago's friends, Penn, Wilders, Soini, Kjaersgaard, Bossi... et al, have gained a toe-hold.
None in Britain - ask the Muslims who have turned up for worship to find some kind soul has poured petrol through the letter-box of their mosque, or the continued victims of 'Paki bashing', or Asian shopkeepers who have to put reinforcements over the fronts of their shops (one of them got kicked to death and was set on fire not to long ago).
Inter-religious persecution and disturbance is a fact of life in many countries - we're about to experience another bout of it up North from here in another few weeks.
Since 9/11, Muslims have become the most persecutes section of American society, all Muslims being blamed for the behaviour of a handful of fanatical nutcases.
Religious persecution, like the poor, has always been with us; it seems that it only becomes a problem to some people when Christians are on the receiving end.
Some of us regard all religious persecution as evil and the possibility of any church gaining political influence a permanent Damocles sword hanging over all of us - with people like yourself, it only becomes so when your own little boat is rocked.
You have the article - deal with the statements - "shite" does't hack it.
