Ok. Let's be clear and succinct about my two main points.

1. We, The Church, are a global community and must respond with the caution of a global community. And, this global community (The Church) is a part of the larger global community of humanity, and must respond in partnership with humanity. (We are no longer a persecuted sect.)

2. I don't believe that the missionaries were attacked because they were Christians, but rather becuase they were not Muslims. Whereas the Early Church was persecuted becuase they were Christians, not simply because they weren't Jewish.
