2014: A Record Year for Violence and Persecution Against Christians
Posted on January 13, 2015 in Religious Freedom by Nathan Cherry
Did you know that 2014 was one of the worst years on record for violence against Christians around the world?
According to Open Doors USA, a leading organization that serves the persecuted church around the world, last year marked the most dramatic increase in violence and persecution of Christians around the world in the modern era. And, the group says, the worst may yet be ahead.
Open Doors USA released its 24th annual World Watch List, documenting the 50 most dangerous countries to live in if you’re a Christian.

Open Doors USA defines persecution as “any hostility experienced as a result of one’s identification with Christ.”

Whether man or woman, if a heterosexual person admitted to having 1,000 sexual partners we would consider that person immoral, and be concerned with the potential for disease. And yet this is a normal characteristic within the homosexual community and no one seems to want to talk about it.
Lord Monckton, writing for WND, reports that Councilor Crestani boldly stood in the council chambers to read the following statistics regarding the health hazards resulting from the promiscuity of the homosexual lifestyle:
