[MacTheKnife]

There is tolerance and there is outrageous tolerance. Too many doormat Christians will not stand up for their faith....timidly pursuing their lives and not wanting to be noticed.

They go to Church reguarly ......yet--do nothing to protest this outrageous and un-reported war on innocent Christians by muslim terrorists.

'At least 447 Christian missionaries have “died violently” in the first 17 years of the third millennium, the Fides news agency announced in a special report Saturday.
Five bishops, 313 priests, three deacons, 61 religious men and women, 16 seminarians, three members of institutes of consecrated life, 42 lay people, and four volunteers were killed while carrying out missionary work, Fides said.

“This figure is undoubtedly low since it refers only to the cases of which we have received confirmation,” noted Fides, the information service of the Pontifical Mission Societies.

The Vatican synod for bishops which is currently taking place in Rome focuses on young people, and the Fides report paid special attention to young missionaries who have died for their faith.

“Accepting the mission implies the willingness to risk one’s life and to travel the way of the cross, in the footsteps of Jesus, who firmly set out on his journey to Jerusalem to offer his life for humanity,” stated the synod’s preparatory document.

The report profiles twelve young Christian missionaries, from a diversity of backgrounds, who were violently killed in the first 17 years of the millennium'.

If our Christian forefathers not even to mention the fathers of the early Christian movement aka Paul had stayed out of dangerous places there would be no Christianity today.

Many, many Christians have been martyred not even to mention Paul in Rome.

Any visitor to the imperial city of Rome cannot help but notice its antiquity on display. Indeed, the prominence of Christian monuments is a testament to the rise of the early Church during the first centuries after Christ’s death and its continued development over nearly two thousand years. The best known of these is St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican.

But lesser known are those relating to the Apostle Paul, who was martyred in Rome at the conclusion of what most believe was a second imprisonment postdating the book of Acts, between which he traveled to Spain and Crete (Titus 1:5). Of this period, the 3rd century church historian Eusebius wrote:

After defending himself the Apostle was again set on the ministry of preaching…coming a second time to the same city [Paul] suffered martyrdom under Nero. During this imprisonment he wrote the second Epistle to Timothy. (Eccl Hist. 2.22.2)

Paul’s poignant and triumphant words are preserved in chapter 4:

For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time for my departure has come. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith. (2 Tim. 4: 6-7)

Eusebius goes on to report “that in his [Nero’s] time Paul was beheaded in Rome itself and that Peter was likewise crucified. (Eccl Hist. 2.25.5) Paul’s execution took place at the end of Nero’s reign, c. A.D. 65-68. His legal status as a Roman citizen protected him from the ignominious sentence of crucifixion suffered by Peter.

Their violence is enabled by the ignorance of liberal Westerners refusing to recognize the reality of this evil and constantly making excuses for it.

If instead of 440 Christians being killed it had been just a half dozen hollywood stars slain....then America's attitude would be entirely different. The media teams up with hollywood to protect those who would and have harmed America.

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”…

And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be upon thy heart;
and thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thy house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.'

The Breitbart report errs in one big way, it only counts "Catholic" missionaries as documented here; VATICAN - Special Fides: Young missionaries, witnesses of Christ giving their lives - Agenzia Fides It leaves out the hundreds of other missionaries from different faiths who were also murdered.
