Christians in Pakistan not provided justice: Archbishop

     Lahore: The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has said that Christian minorities in Pakistan and other Muslim countries were often not provided justice and it was a matter of concern. He said that both communities did not trust each other as Muslims considered Christians of being imperialist agents, and Christians in Muslim countries were being denied justice. "Muslims do not trust Christians considering them agents of imperialism or the United States. Both communities do not trust each other because Christian minorities in Muslim countries are not provided justice, which is evident from recent incidents in Pakistan and Egypt," he said. Williams, who is also a doctorate in theology from Oxford University said that both religions had a common history and Christians and Muslims should remain united and work together and not become hostage to the global geopolitical events, reports the Daily Times. He said that Christians should understand that theirs was not a western religion, as well ask themselves whether they were critical enough of the Western political agenda. "Islam and Christianity are part of the same story that is told differently. Christians should ask themselves whether they are critical enough of the Western political agenda," Williams added.
