Re: Saudi Cracks Down on Christians

If by some odd event happening in the world where this country decided to arrest Muslims, Arabs, and seize their property, and have their rights stripped away, and led off to concentration camps, every man, woman, and child, because of their Islamic beliefs, family affiliation, or Arabic racial background (even if they were Christian, or atheist,) but still were arrested because of an Islamophobia.

What would you do?

I'm asking this because any time the word Muslim comes up nice Christians want to lock and load and burn some crosses on their Arab neighbor's front lawn.

Now, I'm not saying YOU people, because you all are level headed devoted followers of Brother John Birch, and adhere to the teachings of the Bible.

Anyway, if the government outlawed Islam in this country, and started to incarcerate families in your town, village, or city, what would you do?

Re: Saudi Cracks Down on Christians

I don't agree with them being sent to concentration camps, but sending Muslims back to their Muslim home countries would be a consideration. Either you come to this country, and agree to abide by the laws, rules, and language that this country has, or stay where you are, in your own country.

And this would go for anyone, not just a specific race or profiled group.

If they try to do that to Muslims, they would do it to Christians.

Yes, He did. While we pray for them, we must also pray for ourselves, and for what no doubt is our own impending persecution here in America coming sooner than we may think.

They don't due to they not having time?

Because they are too busy killing abortion doctors, and blowing up the abortion clinics?

Please forgive me, but my question was race, and religious group specific.
If you would go back and read my post again, you will see that it focuses on the same lines that the Nazis focused with profiled groups. Especially the Jews. Instead of pogroms for Jews, we will have forced exiles for American citizens who happen to believe in a certain religion? Are all Muslims blowing up truck bombs? Do all Christians kill abortion doctors? Do all Rastafarians smoke Ganja?

OK, never mind that part, then. Take the low road, and shut down religious freedom. Then everything will be wonderful!
