i umm...wow. okay. i hope you're joking.
I have always asked myself whether persecuted Christians, or any other religious group that has been persecuted throughout history, would prefer religious freedom instead of financial freedom in the long run. Many of their so-called victim acts mainly protect their beliefs, traditions and overall culture, but they also protect their own economic interests, which brings the analysis of the negative correlation existent between religion and wealth.
No it was implied, that's why I said answer her post and not her question.
Of course I read the link, it had nothing to do with her post."Two: I think we all wish you would use your own words"
My own words? Did you take time to read the link I posted?
I'm amazed at how the subject of the conversation is always so easily
diverted.
My own words by the way
This is from Iron's post above. This picture says a little more about the situation than these "articles" he's posting. To me this says that religious persecution is a problem all around, so why the focus on Christians? This also tells me that the majority of the abuse comes from the people moreso than the governments. But it doesn't really bother with talking about the religious groups persecuting groups of people based on their sexuality, race, or anything non-related to religious association.
So let's not play martyr, let's get upset about persecution in general, let's get upset by the persecution that's happening in our own backyards, our own churches, our own countries. Where are those articles?
I'd ask for you to elaborate, but we all know your history...
