That these Evangelicals don't know, where Iran is on a map.....
but he doesn't even know, who ruled Egypt at the time of Jesus .....

Prophet Jesus Christ? I thought this is in Quran? Afair I never heard this in our religion lessons in school or in church when I was young.

nice catch Böhse   .
Christians would consider it a slur to demote Jesus to the status of 'just' a prophet.

Most US Evangelicals regard Jesus as a PROFIT,sad news about the end of the good book,they're not in it.

I have to admit, that I found this picture with this quote randomly in the internet. But it is interesting, what discussion it sparked here in the thread and I agree, it makes much more sense to imagine Khamenei as the speaker. And then even Pharaohs at the time of Jesus are possible, because in the Quran Mary is both the mother of Isa ben Maryyam and the sister of Musa. This is an old Quranic problem.

According to my knowledge the Rohynga were tranfered by the British from the former Bengal province to Lower Burma, when the whole region was under British rule. By doing this they initiated a long fight.

In France more and more people join the protests against Macron:

This from last night:

President Emmanuel Macron is evacuated from a packed Paris theatre by armed riot police as a mob of anti-government protesters try to reach him

French president Emmanuel Macron evacuated from Bouffes du Nord theatre

Around 30 demonstrators stormed the theatre which is close to the Eurostar

Taha Bouhafa, 22, a political activist who was sitting just behind the president

Mr Bouhafa was videoing the head of state and then inviting people to rush in

Macron and wife had to evacuate the theatre, but returned later.

Interesting way to put it, not Stars and Stripes but "Stars and Bars". The stars representing the smaller part of the flag (the elite) and the bars taking up the larger part of the flag which represents the majority of the population who are enslaved, imprisoned.
