Reviving an old topic - political correctness

To Rob,

I think that you have made some very good points regarding this subject. You correctly point out that in these Islamic countries Christians (of all denominations, especially Catholic) are persecuted in the name of Islam.

I do know that in these countries a Christian is not allowed to enter the country with a Bible in his or her bag.

It is this softness, this political correctness, the unwillingness to face reality that is causing a lot of the problem since these terrorists are emboldened by the lack of action against them. To them the Christian and atheist appeasers are weak in character and a pushover for their real goal of the world wide caliphate.
