I'm trying to eat as many catholic babies as I can. However, we seem to be running low here, can you send me some NX? Before baptism if possible.
Thanking you in advance.

One of the reasons it's hard to swallow, is that Christians have claimed "persecution" for centuries, and it's not necessarily been the case.
Dr. Candida Moss wrote a book about early Christianity entitled "The Myth of Persecution", which is interesting, because she was a professor at Notre Dame,
A Roman Ca University. https://www.amazon.com/Myth-Persecution-...0062104551
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell

Nobel Laureate and Russian Historian Vladimir Solzhentisyn reflects on the Great Disasters that Atheistic Bolshevik Communism caused in the Soviet Union.. It caused some 60 MN Deaths - including at least 100,000 Clergymen - many of whom were Christians and thus Martyrs. Christians killed by Atheists for being Christians, out of hatred for the Christian Faith, and anti-Clerical Bigotry, as a consequence of the teaching of that Demonic Atheist Karl Marx. Sources below with links
1. "Over half a century ago, while I was still a child, I recall hearing a number of older people offer the following explanation for the great disasters that had befallen Russia: ‘Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.’
Since then I have spent well-nigh 50 years working on the history of our revolution; in the process I have read hundreds of books, collected hundreds of personal testimonies, and have already contributed eight volumes of my own toward the effort of clearing away the rubble left by that upheaval. But if I were asked today to formulate as concisely as possible the main cause of the ruinous revolution that swallowed up some 60 million of our people, I could not put it more accurately than to repeat: ‘Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.’"
From: https://www.templetonprize.org/laureate-...ce-speech/
2. Wiki: "According to some sources, the total number of Christian victims under the Soviet regime has been estimated to range around 12 to 20 million.[131][132] At least 106,300 Russian clergymen were executed between 1937 and 1941.[133]"
The references: "
- ”Estimates of the total number all Christian martyrs in the former Soviet Union are about 12 million.”, James M. Nelson, “Psychology, Religion, and Spirituality”, Springer, 2009, ISBN 0387875727, p. 427
- ^ ”over 20 million were martyred in Soviet prison camps”, Todd M. Johnson, “Christian Martyrdom: A global demographic assessment“, p. 4 University of Notre Dame"

3. As for me, and what I do about it, why do you keep bringing me into the equation when I did not? I already know the game: if I answer, you'll say he's bragging, and if I don't answer, you'll say, he's evading our questions deliberately. But since you asked, I will tell you: I donate to Open Doors, the Christian Organization that helps Persecuted Christians around the world, God bless them for it; I support Persecuted Christians in other ways I'm not going into here; I educate people about what Militant Atheism has done to Christians, like the 20+ MN Christians at least it killed in the Soviet Union out of sheer hatred for Christians and Clergy, and the tenets of Marxist Militant Atheism that Religion is evil. And yes, I and others I know, we pray for Persecuted Christians, and we try to mobilize support for them in every way that we can.
The Great Saints and Martyrs of this 21st and the 20th Century persecuted under Atheistic Communist Tyrants like Stalin and Mao will shine in Glory in Heaven forever and forever as the Reward for their patiently endured Sufferings for God, while Divine Justice will consign all those unrepentant murderers and torturers of Christians and those complicit in their Persecution to Eternal Hell-Fire with the demons forever and ever.
