So name Middle Eastern countries where Christians are treated equitably to Muslims. Don't say Egypt because the Copts have suffered much there. How many Christians are now left in Syria? The only country where they have equity is Lebanon and that is because colonial rule ensured that Christians remained a powerful group. Seeing churches says NOTHING about how these people live or whether they feel safe.
We can also talk of Pakistan and Iran. I see that you must go back centuries to talk about decent treatment of Christians. Why don't we talk about life for Christians in the Middle East in 2018?

As to plundering. Please don't fool yourself that Islam wasn't spread by the sword or there wasn't widespread plunder as Muslim empires expanded, both by the Arabs and the Turks. Certainly many Christians in North Africa were put to the sword as conquering armies of Muslims swept through that region.
Also ask yourself why when in 2018 Muslims get into trouble they seek long term asylum in Christian lands. I don't see millions trying to get to Saudi or Iran. Germany alone absorbed almost 1 million two years ago, the vast majority of them being Muslims. Even many sweltering in refugee camps in Jordan and Lebanon would prefer to settle in Europe or North America if that were possible.
Contrary to your belief, Islam was NOT spread by the sword/force ! Only a brainless jackass would believe such drivel because anyone with a modicum of common sense will understand and realize that 1) force or duress induces anger and resentment and 2) as soon as such force is removed, people will quickly and readily resort to their previously-held beliefs and practices. Laws in every country in the Middle East apply to people all across the board. I suggest you call the embassies of M/Eastern countries and put your question to them. Instances of Muslims seeking long term assistance in Christian lands are 99.99% based on political reasons and the treachery of nations like USA, England, France, etc., the same nations who plundered and stole everything they were able to get their sticky fingers on in the very countries that they are so quick to debase and criticize ! Why did you leave Guyana; were you persecuted because you subscribe to a particular religion ? Try seeking residence in 'Christian Australia' and see what reception they will give your black, Christian ass ! Have you ever been in or even close to Iran and Saudi Arabia ? As a function of my profession, I have been to both of those countries on numerous occasions and I assure you that if they declare their borders open tomorrow, there will be droves of people seeking entry into both ! Many in the western world; like you, are so quick to criticize and ridicule countries which have different customs and cultures despite the fact that they do not know shit about anything !
