Are Christians victims of discrimination in the Jewish state? I know that many Jews see Christians as a threat and vehemently criticize the ideas of its origins i.e. Its messiah (Jesus) being Jewish.

Not at all. We are treated like royalty when we go over there.
They cater especially to Christian groups..Our guide was just wonderful and so was the hotel where we stayed.
We were taken to all sites of importance given the Catholic version and the Protestant version of everything.
They couldn't be more gracious and nice. One guide told us how Moses struck the rock for water and they have drilled for water at that spot. He gave a lot of illustrations from the Bible.
Calvary and the tomb. The garden of Gethsemane where 8 olive trees that are recorded to be 2000 years old.( an olive tree never dies, they said.) These trees were hollow inside and huge...still bearing olives.
The wailing wall...fantastic. My daughter and I walked where Jesus walked.

My sources say Christians are treated well and highly respected in Israel. Tourism has become a welcome business there. I am distantly acquainted with a lady who has a daughter living over there; has lived in Israel for about the last 30 years. So, I'm getting nothing but good reports. Just don't fly there by way of the Egyptian airports/stop-over.

I unquestionably have heard undesirable Jews scream issues like we killed Jesus. besides the indisputable fact that it extremely is the minority not the familiar public. yet another conflict is human beings attempting to transform Jews. could of the loopy evangies right here that only look off lots of the time that pass to Israel think again their reasons earlier they attempt that interest there. to not offend yet maximum do not prefer to communicate A Jew. The training is plenty extra suitable than the different faith, plus your not gonna convert anybody. journey converts human beings. have you ever doubted some thing and would not have faith until eventually you observed it? properly it extremely is every person with very almost each thing and faith is on suitable of the record. Jews for Jesus get flack whilst they pass passing out flyers and attempting to transform human beings there. a lot of flack yet you in common terms do not try this there. it is not problematic to understand. you may cry that it extremely is a freedom etc yet what's being achieved isn't in common terms..

I am sure if you want to find cases of discrimination you will find them. No society is perfect particularly one where ethnic and religious tensions run high.
but put it this way, Israel is the only state in the Middle East where the Christian population is growing in real numbers. Other Middle Eastern states the migration rate is higher than the natural Christian birth rate.
