Churches are being destroyed in Pakistan

Topics: Understanding Islam

When the Permanent Council for Scholarly Research and Religious Legal Judgment, an organ of the Saudi Ministry of Religious Endowments, states that it is obligatory to destroy any church or other heretical house of worship that was built after [the advent of] Islam, and it is forbidden to oppose the ruler in the matter of its destruction, and he must be obeyed, is it any wonder that we are witnessing the systematic uprooting of Christianity from Arab countries? - HiddenTruths

Multan (Pakistan):

"Christians on Sunday protested against the desecration of the Holy Bible and arson attacks on their places of worship in various parts of the country, terming the incidents 'religious terrorism'."

Special services were held for those who had died in various incidents of violence against minorities.

"It is religious terrorism to set our church (in Mian Channu) ablaze during the period when we (Christians) fast. It is an attack on our religion and belief. We feel unsafe and insecure," said Chaudhry Naveed Amer Jeeva, MPA and the coordinator of All Pakistan Minorities Alliance, South Punjab."

Continues with much more here...

If the desecration had been to a Koran or the violence against Muslims, the MSM and cable outlets would have been all over it. After all, how can we forget the toilet flushing that never was! As for the churches in Pakistan, no news here - the destruction of Christian churches and bibles isn't newsworthy, the event is simply too common and only Christians seem to care.
