Subject: RE: BS: Christian Persecution
Kanpur, which is possibly I suppose Cawnpore? The museum I was dragged around, the name of which escapes me, and the actual village which was nearby. I spent a bit of time working around Uttar Pradesh. That particular claim moved me enough to remember what I just put. Which is interesting in itself as I normally am useless at remembering where things were, and in recent years since meeting Mrs Musket who is a walking Encyclopaedia, knowledge of where we go and what we do is better. I fly out to Thailand on Monday for a holiday, but be buggered if I recall the name of the island we are spending the second week on. All I know is we fly from Bangkok to it next Saturday.

I am not aware of any Christian States where apostasy is a capital offence. But there again there are not many Christian States, and very few Islamic ones for that matter.

I am sure there are many places, especially in Dumbfuckistan, where not following Christian lifestyle would be an offence if they got their own way. Already, not just Dumbfuckistan, but the rest of The USA, it is difficult to get far in public office without claiming Jesus put you there.....   Some would like that here in The UK and point to bishops being in The lords as meaning we are a Christian state, which we are not. Our monarch is the leader of one particular cult but there again, she is the patron of those who make Pedigree Chum dog food.

I repeat. Yes, Christians are being persecuted, so are other religions. Pointing out the persecution of one cult rather than say persecution of religions, with Christianity bearing the brunt, is dangerous, divisive and smells of an agenda.
