Rand Paul Warns of War on Christianity (+video)
By Garth Kant.
“You won’t hear much about it on the evening news,” warned Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., “but there is a worldwide war on Christianity.”
The senator chose to highlight the danger of radical Islam in his speech before the Values Voter Summit Friday morning.
Paul explained the war on Christianity is not making the headlines it should because the “narrative is not convenient” to the establishment media.
“The president tries to gloss over who’s attacking and killing Christians. The media describes the killings as ‘sectarian.’”
But the truth, said the senator, is war is being waged on Christians “by a fanatical element of Islam.”

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul spent Friday morning telling stories to conservatives about the persecution of Christians across the world.
“Today I want to tell you about a war the mainstream media is ignoring,” the Republican lawmaker said Friday during the Values Voter Summit in Washington. “From Boston to Zanzibar, there is a worldwide war on Christianity.”…
Examples referenced by Paul:
Referencing an incident in Syria, Paul spoke of Islamic rebels storming into town and demanding everyone convert to Islam or die. “Sarkis el Zakhm stood up and answered them, ‘I am a Christian and if you want to kill me because I am a Christian, do it.’ Those were Sarkis last words.”
“Elsewhere in Syria, Islamic rebels have filmed beheadings of their captives and celebrated by eating the heart of an enemy soldier,” Paul said. “Two Christian bishops have been kidnapped and one priest recently killed.”
