Imagine if the roles were reversed, which they would not be and should not be. You’d be hearing that news everywhere. But you’ll likely only hear about this here.
“Horror: What ex-Muslims in Iraq face after becoming Christians,” by Billy Hallowell, Christian Post, December 17, 2024:
Ex-Muslims in Iraq who convert to Christianity face consequences that could range from beatings to kidnappings — or even death.
Jeff King, president of International Christian Concern (ICC), recently joined CBN News’ “Newsmakers” podcast to explore the various levels of persecution believers face in the country.
“It really depends on the level of fundamentalism,” King said of the persecution a Christian convert might face. “So, that’s really just the broad gauge. … If it’s a very fundamentalist family, it can be very typical that you are going to be kidnapped and beaten. That would probably be the lowest level, the lowest response.”
He continued, “And then you’d be tortured. It would go up to … weeks of torture and even murder. And it’s typically done, this is so hard for Westerners to understand, but it’s typically done by the family.”…
“Anyone who converts from Islam will likely face intense pressure from their families and communities,” an Open Doors explainer reads. “They can be threatened, abused, lose family members, pressured or even killed. Conversion can have practical consequences as well, including loss of inheritance and lack of opportunity.”…

Its a terrible thing to believe in a god that demands you hurt and kill others instead of showing love and care. That is not a God I would want believe in. Cruelty never turns anyone to that belief.

Probably kidnapped, beaten, tortured and even killed by converts to Islam?
Some converts to Islam try very hard to prove their loyalty and devotedness to Islam to such an extent that they become more aggresive than most muslims.
So I am not surprised if I hear converts to Christianity are killed by converts to Islam. It contasts the difference between Christianity and Islam.

islam is a Fascist Religious Cult.
Fascist… As you are forbidden to question any of the teachings.
Religious… As they talk about God… A LOT.
Cult… As they will kill you if you try to leave it or change your mind about what you think God is or isnt.
And yet we see today those Of The Left falling over themselves to protect and defend such a people who wish to kill those who think of themselves as Liberal..
Upside down World we have today across the Western World.
Thankfully I dont live in The West and never will again.
