The difficulty of being Christian in the Middle East due to constant perilous danger



Christians light candles last month in the Church of the Nativity in the West Bank town of Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus.This picture to the left is representing the catholic society in the Middle East. However this picture also represents a larger more in depth look into Catholicism in the Middle East. Catholics that venture into the Middle East are so often persecuted and not able to openly, safely be devout without risking their lives.
 Catholics have been trying to venture to where Jesus' footprints were originally left but the radicals of Islam have been causing great difficulty by openly persecuting, kidnapping and even killing Christians who venture over there.
