Assalamu alaikum.Hello my friends. I am a Lebanese Maronite Christian, and I'd like to hear your honest opinion on Middle Eastern/Arab Christians. The reason I specify on arab christians is so that there is no way that a political divide (such as the actions of the US or Europe/Russia in the Arab World) will be taken into account. Same with historical conflicts such as the Crusades, which again, my people had no real part in.
So, what are your opinions on middle eastern christians? I hear many conflicting sources. Some argue that Arab Muslims see us as their brothers, but that argument is always disrupted by someone going
nice taqiyya
I hear completely contradictory sources from family as well. My grandfather lived amongst muslims in Egypt and seemed to have no quarrel with them, (he wasn't a fan of jews though) meanwhile my Teta carries a lot of anger from the Leb Civil War. So, instead of running these ideas in my head all day long, I'd rather just hear your actual opinions instead. You may note that I consider Middle East Christians to be ethnic brothers of middle east muslims, unlike many others who claim an ethnoreligious difference. Though, our culture is certainly different for sure.
