Christians are “the most persecuted religious group”

tell that to the millions of Rohingya Muslims and Palestinians and Uighur Muslims being 'Ethnically Cleansed'

“The persecution of Christians in parts of the world is at near "genocide" levels, according to a report ordered by Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt.
The review, led by the Bishop of Truro the Right Reverend Philip Mounstephen, estimated that one in three people suffer from religious persecution.
Christians were the most persecuted religious group, it found.
Mr Hunt said he felt that "political correctness" had played a part in the issue not being confronted.

The interim report said the main impact of "genocidal acts against Christians is exodus" and that Christianity faced being "wiped out" from parts of the Middle East.
It warned the religion "is at risk of disappearing" in some parts of the world, pointing to figures which claimed Christians in Palestine represent less than 1.5% of the population, while in Iraq they had fallen from 1.5 million before 2003 to less than 120,000.”

give me a break there r still 3.3 billion of you tbh so calm down . the population is too much anyway

Because there are 3.3 billion Christians they should persecute shame on you.

A lot of people from my church are international students from China where Christians are heavily persecuted which has been well documented. I think the problem here is not 'who is most oppressed' or 'who is most oppressed per capita' but that in the UK we associate Christianity with Europe and the US where Christians are generally in a good position but we forget about the millions of Christians that are not this lucky.

With this said I think even in Europe and the UK there is a terrible amount of casual ignorance and intolerance towards Christians which is said everyday by educated people in universities. I've personally had lecturers casually misrepresent my faith in front of the whole class which is only laughed at by the other students, similarly flatmates have mocked me for practising my religion which only puts more pressure on 'trying to fit in' at uni. I don't think this kind of behaviour is tolerated for other religions which we see as less privileged than Christianity

Because there are 3.3 billion Christians they should persecute shame on you.

This is not persecution olympics guys. Don’t compare the persecution of Christians to the persecution of Muslims or Jewish people. They are issues on their own and relative to eachother.

yah im not comparing it but its funny how the thread maker just assumed that christians are undergoing the largest genocide blah blah blah without looking at actual facts . ny genocide whatever the number is is unacceptable and horrible because every life matters

What makes Christian prosecution less important? I hope you aren’t saying it’s justified. This thread is about Christians , not the British empire, or slavery. If you want to talk about those, make your own thread.

yah its about chritsians but surely its not the largest genocide happening . i clearly said its not justified . but it just shows how ignorant the thread maker is to the real evidence about the largest persecuted religious group . just because christians are gettting persecuted that doesnt mean we ignore the other religions that are and were due to or not due to christians and the thread maker us clearly ignorant of that fact hence put forward his view

There have been threads on other religions too. If anything, people have forgotten about Christians, how many times do you see something about Christians getting killed in the news? Just because for one time, a certain group was highlighted, it doesn’t mean people have forgotten about others.

give me a break there r still 3.3 billion of you tbh so calm down . the population is too much anyway

Christians have spent the best part of two millennia engaging in persecution of other people.

I have to laugh

Also it seems bizarre for them to fixate on the dearth of Christianity in the middle east when it's one of the most prevalent religions in most other areas of the world, including the Asia-Pacific region, Africa, and South America, not to mention Europe and North America.

But I guess the fact there is one place they don't have a vice-grip on is unacceptable to them..

And this is relevant why?
