What makes you think Christians are oppressed in most Muslim countries? Other than Saudi Arabia, I don't think its a much of a problem being a Christian in most of them.


Christian Copts in Egypt are about 15% - 20% of the population.

Copts are not allowed to build churches; require government approval to even repair a church

Many Coptic villages attacked by Muslim mobs in numerous incidents; nobody ever prosecuted

Coptic girls kidnapped, raped, forcibly converted. No response from police.
