They actually do not and Republicans are EVIL warmongers. Yes Christians are leaving ISIS controlled areas, but so are Muslims, for many reasons, poverty and war not the only ones.
But it is a lie ISIS is beheading Christians in some organized terror campaign against Christians, they are required by their Koran to tax and protect Christians who pay the Jizya tax (which is proportional to the income of the Christian so it's only as much a burden as a Christian can afford).
Now the requirements of the Jizya are actually quite reasonable as a Christian. Because Ironically it is what Christ himself calls Christians to do.
ISIS Forcing Christians Of Al-Qaryatayn to Pay Jizya
That's beside the point.
Christ says to go pray in closets, behind closed doors, etc., etc., for more important reasons than saving your head, but to save your soul. Public prayer is a form of pride, it is a form of seeking to be seen doing something good, rather than actually doing something good.
What does this all mean?
What it means is that REPUBLICANS are LIARS, who want to start a war.
If you're a Christian in ISIS held territory, pay the Jizya.
If you want to help Christians accosted by ISIS, let's start a fund to help them pay the Jizya.
If you are afraid of paying the Jizya, then you are not humble and you are not poor and meek, as Christ asks you to be.

- Not to build in their city nor nearby any church, abbey, or monk’s hermitage.
- Not to show their crosses or books (bible) in-front of Muslims in the city markets or on the roads, and not to use speakers while conducting their masses.
- Not to make Muslims hear their prayers, religious readings, or ringing their church bells.

- To comply with not to show any of their worship rituals in front of Muslims.
- To respect Islam and Muslims, and not to criticize them.
- To pay Jizya, which is equal to 4 dinars/year (applied on Christians under the Islamic rule in the past, and 1 dinar = 4.25 g of 24 karat gold) that means the annual Jizea would be 17 g of 24 kt gold applied on wealthy Christians, and 50% of this amount on middle class, and 25% on poor Christians, and this amount can be divided on two instalments. According to the gold prices in Syria nowadays, the Jizya will be estimated as following: 17 x 36.59 = $622 / year on wealthy people. 50% x 622 = $311 / year on middle class people. 25% x 622 = $155.5 / year on poor people
