Burma (Myanmar): Continued Ethnic Cleansing of Christian Kachin Minority - Crossmap Christian News | Church & Ministries

Burma (Myanmar): Continued Ethnic Cleansing of Christian Kachin Minority - Crossmap Christian News | Church & Ministries: "The Burmese Army (the Tatmadaw) is continuing its campaign of ethnic cleansing in resource-rich Kachin State. The Christian Kachin have long resisted the Burman Buddhist regime's brutal dictatorship. While the Kachin want autonomy so they can freely maintain their culture, the Burman Buddhist elite and military want complete control of Kachin land so they can exploit its resources. The situation in Burma is reminiscent of that in Sudan, where the Islamist-Arab regime in Khartoum is doing the same in the resource-rich mostly Christian, African south. Similar situations exist in Papua, Indonesia and in Vietnam's Central Highlands. In each case, the resistance of the predominantly Christian ethnic peoples is met with extreme military violence and ethnic cleansing motivated by greed and fuelled by state-sanctioned racial and religious hatred."

Tough Times Ahead For U.S. Christians

Tough Times Ahead For U.S. Christians: "Being Christian in America increasingly means something very different from what it has meant previously in our nation’s history.

As the culture and its values change, so too does the position once held by the teachings of traditional, Bible-based Christianity.

Simply put, the Christian values once applauded by this society are increasingly being attacked by this society, and that growing antagonism extends not just to the values, but to the people who ascribe to them."
