I have noticed that Muslims and Jews have a strong sense of solidarity within their respective religions.
But I kinda feel like Christianity doesn’t have this.
I’ve been in Christian spaces and while Christians definitely do support each other, I feel like it’s a lot more limited.
Like with the Muslim world, it seems like Palestine is something most Muslims care about. Most Muslims regardless of race or sect support the Palestinians.
Most Jews similarly support Israel though with Israel being the way it is, there’s obviously a lot of discourse in the Jewish world on the way Israel conducts itself. Still when Jews are attacked like on October 7th, no matter what your politics were, the entire Jewish world stood in solidarity with the families of those who were taken hostage.
Maybe this is just me in America, but it seems like Christians here don’t have a sense of solidarity with each other. I feel like American Christians are a lot more divided by race and social status.
Like the evangelicals back Trump and want to deport the illegal immigrants. But the illegal immigrants themselves(most of whom are latinos) are Christian. They are also super pro Israel, even when Israel is oppressing and killing Christians in the West Bank/Gaza.
Perhaps I lack insight on this. Muslims kill and oppress each other all the time, especially with the whole Sunni vs Shia thing and other sectarian issues. And I do believe that minority Jewish groups in Israel do face some discrimination.
But even still it seems like the most pro Christian people in American politics legit give a fuck about the well-being of other Christians and just use Christianity to push whatever bullshit issue they’re obsessed over.
anyways Christians of this site hope I didn’t offend you, feel free to give me your thoughts
