Egypt Arrests Five Christian Children For Blasphemy - Breitbart


Egyptian authorities arrested five Coptic Christian children after a Muslim mob accused them of blasphemy. The mob was upset they appeared in a video that allegedly “mocked” Islam, but really only made fun of the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL), which is determined to wipe Christianity, Judaism, and non-compliant Muslims off the Earth.
The police had arrested the Coptic teacher and held him for four days, but the mob nonetheless demanded more punishment, descending upon the homes of the children and “threw rocks at the homes of the youth in a bid to force their parents” to surrender the kids.

Wow. If you have time, take a glance at the comments.

We should excuse it and get off our high horse. You know, because of the crusades and all.

You don't even need to go back that far. I think it was last year that a court case was brought up questioning if members of the Navy need to say anything about God in their oaths. One of the people in favor of it said 'God is with those soldiers' and an atheist solider disagreed. Frankly, I don't care all the much about it, but when he was voicing his opinion, he was booed. A man who risked his life for this ungrateful country was booed because he doesn't believe in an ancient myth. He may not have been arrested, but let's not pretend that our population of Christians is all about the hippie Jesus stuff. If we love our neighbor so much, he wouldn't have been booed, even if everyone firmly disagreed with him.

Just another example of why religions are the root of social unrest worldwide.

Do you realize that it's 2015 and not 1095.

Well back in 852, the Islamists insulted my religion, so I believe we should wipe them out now....seems reasonable.

Exactly. It's time for all these primitive superstitions to finally die out, once and for all.
