Where God Weeps - the suffering church in focus

Catholics in Iran: A community at risk of extinction?

Host Mark Riedemann interviews Camille Eid, journalist, author and observer of Middle East Churches, in Rome, about the Christian community in Iran. Christians make up only 0.2% of the population in a 99% Muslim country in which Islam is the state religion. Christians endure discrimination - and outright persecution - ranging from Modesty Patrols enforcing Islamic dress codes to Parliamentary debates whether the death sentence should be imposed on apostates – Muslims who change their faith.
