No I was not proposing that two wrongs make a right (in case you missed my critical tone in my first reminder on the history of our own southern states. Not exactly something to be proud about or feel justified for)
But in case it escaped your notice, a previous poster commented upon the difficulty of getting permits for a Christian church in a Muslim country.
That’s kind of a tit for tat type of example which preceded my comments.
But I pointed out the FACT that Christian Pastors are jailed and sentenced to death in Muslim countries. That’s a whole different level of persecution in which delayed permits and similar bureaucratic crap pales by comparison.
I don’t see much outrage about that. As a matter of fact I barely see a mention of it at all. And we’re talking about long imprisonment and death sentence for the “sin” of daring to have a Christian church in a Muslim nation.
No we have not stooped to that level at all. The south is just doing it’s typical foot dragging just as they did with desegregation back in the fifties and sixties. It doesnt make it rigjt snd im not defending it at all Its just a vase of what else is new?
But the south does not represent ALL of America and they don’t represent me.
If people can point out the horrible injustice of bureaucratic foot dragging over delayed permits, then I can certainly point out an analogous horrendous situation of the death penalty for the “sin” of worshipping the wrong God.
Shouldn’t we be better than what’s happening in Tenn. Yes absolutely we should.
And guess what? WE ARE. For I have yet to hear about any Imams here in the USA being imprisoned and sentenced to death MERELY FOR OPENING A CHURCH.
I’m fed up with the adherents of BOTH faiths involved here not living up to the peaceful tenets of the faith which they claim to represent.
Have you?
