Shame on you.

I am not saying that at all. I suspect you know that.

Keith spoke of Christian persecution then in the same paragraph spoke of Muslims being welcomed into our country. You may interpret that as one thing but with his track record, I, I suspect accurately, interpret it in a far less positive light.

A debate on the subject of persecution is valid. Pointing out persecution of communities and individuals based on their weekly worship, if they personally bother, is never going to get anywhere. It is, as many have pointed out, including some of the articles he refers to, a statistical fact that those identified as Christians in countries dominated by other faiths will make up a majority of instances of persecution of minorities at any time. I offered a further thought that people who look to the religion of people as a way of judging them will identify Christians with American and European led bombing of Muslim majority land. This plays into the hands of those who seek to use their faith to further more temporal causes.

In fact, for all you just put, you will find if you bother to read, that I acknowledge the seeming widespread persecution of communities identified as Christian. I just don't fall into the trap of calling it Christian persecution thats all.

That would imply such atrocities were because of their faith. Which it isn't.
