[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jews are the most persecuted by far [/quote]
Today? Right now? What are the statistics for Jewish and Christians religious attacks in the last ten years? What are the numbers of Christians that left Iraq or dissipated?  I don't know, I am asking if anyone has these numbers for the last 10 years. People often forget that million of Slavs were in concentration camps, but their number doesn't reach anything close to the Jewish Holocaust. Are we also counting Stalin that killed over 25 million people, predominantly Orthodox and Jewish?[/quote]

In the US and Europe it’s absolutely Jews on a per capita basis. [/quote]

Thanks for the info. Clearly, the US and Europe are a small part of the world. You need to just google persecution of Copts to see staggering numbers. As usual, the West doesn't county Orthodox Christians as Christians. Sad really. [/quote]

Can you provide numbers that show they’re persecuted on a per capita basis more than Jews?[/quote]

Oh and since I was talking about the US and Europe, you need to limit it to those regions to make an actual comparison.[/quote]
Since the article is about other countries and I wondered if people had some general numbers... your numbers are for what? I thought it was interesting info. I have no idea who is more or less persecuted, in 2017 127 Christians were killed due to hate crimes in Egypt, over 200 families kicked out of their homes. What exactly is your problem with insisting I limit to US and Europe, and the tone of vying for the most persecuted spot? Sick. I guess as long as it happens somewhere else you don't care?[/quote]
Yeah, I do think there's some underlying biases rooted in racism and white supremacy in the "well, you realize this doesn't apply to the US, right?" Like, because it's brown people across the world, oh, well, that's different and I'm going to dismiss it.

Icky, icky, icky. [/quote]

No. We can talk about it, and it's important, but it is not happening universally (as the title implies).

Christians are not The Most Persecuted Group. They [I]are[/I] being persecuted in appalling numbers in certain areas of the world, so let's talk about what it happening to those people. It's important, although it is not happening here. Still important.[/quote]
