How about this.

Now that we have established that the group of refugees are NOT Muslims and are, in fact, Christians, and have nothing to do with the current Syrian crisis, are you guys willing to admit that you guys have been lying through your teeth trying to defend the OP? Or will you continue to deflect and change the subject?

Being it mentions no religion we can determine they are Christians. To funny.
that should be "too funny" not "to funny" but the reason you can arrive at a reasonable guess that they were mostly Christians is because they came from Burundi & Republic of Congo which are occupied almost exclusively by Christians. Why don't you try reading about the issue on the blog of the farm owners rather than relying upon a RWNJ website

Whether Muslims, Christian whatever - how many of you are actively helping or taking in refugees, immigrants ect... I've asked this question before and all I hear is silence -I'd have more respect for you if you actually had experience in the area rather when mocking others concerns.

And then you jump into the Christian bashing they aren't accepting ...so filled with hate....kill me if I'm ever like they are. blah blah blah

If the refugees are from parts of Africa that are 90%+ Christian, would it not make more sense to assume they are Christians, rather than Muslims?

Why -- as Christians -- would they flee a region that is overwhelmingly Christian?

Then the refugees ARE Muslims....

No, they are Muslims.

See above.

No, it would make more sense to assume that they are Muslims.

Why would they flee if they were Christians in a 90% Christian country?

It is Muslims, not Christians, who are fleeing the Central African Republic according to Snopes (cited above).

It is Muslims, not Christians, who are being attacked and forced to flee and become refugees according to Snopes (cited above.)

Logic and liberals -- like oil and water.

Well let's think. Why would Syrian Muslims flee a country that was 90% muslim?

Why would Iraqi Muslims flee a country that was 99% muslim?

Why would Afghani Muslims flee a country that was 99% muslim?

So after 6 pages it's established that the refugees were almost entirely Christian not Muslims and the OP was incorrect, I assume an apology will be coming shortly

Why would they need to flee a predominantly Christian country?

Why would Muslims start each day at the farm praying to Jesus, as the farm owners stated?
