When Will Catholics And Protestants Stand Up for the Orthodox In Turkey

A great Sixty Minutes piece last night on this horrible situation. Get Religion has a good piece with some additional commentary along with the vid. See ‘60 Minutes’ visits a persecuted patriarch

The fact as Christians we have allowed this to go on is incredible. I agree with this comment:
It is unconsciencenable that we Roman Catholics, and those of us in the West who have benefited from Western History and tradition, do not demand that Turkey, and Muslims in general, remove all restrictions on our Orthodox ........

It is indeed a Scandal that American Catholics and Protestants in the United States have not made our leaders move on this matter.

Not all Christian oppression is occurring in China and India.
