What do you think of Christians getting murdered by Muslims in Nigeria? Do you know over 100,000 were killed?

As a Christian, I think the murder, kidnapping and persecution of Christians in Nigeria is horrific and deserves far more attention. Islamist extremists have deliberately attacked Christian communities, churches and clergy, and Nigeria has a serious obligation to protect its citizens and bring those responsible to justice.

However, I would be careful with the claim that “over 100,000 Christians were killed.” I have seen that number circulated, but it is disputed and I don’t think we need an uncertain statistic to make the case.

Even one person murdered because of his or her Christian faith is one too many. We should condemn the persecution honestly and forcefully without blaming Muslims generally or exaggerating numbers that are not firmly established.

It is horrible and under reported. Mass media ignores it as it does not fit their agenda. It would if it were Christian fanatics or Jews though.

Sick. And the world sits by. This is how muslim and mohammed spread in the first place.

What makes you think that Europe is safe?

[DryGermanGuy]

I know so, because I live here and nothing is happening. I have never once heard gunshots in my life (outside of a shooting range).

This, should be a lesson for all Christianity based countries.

Religious persecution has always happened and will always happen.

No one should be killed because of their religion.

It's a sad thing. No one seems to care.
