protect people who were killed for their faith and the reporting period of this index. this is important for the whole world because nigeria is the center of what's going on in africa and if countries with all of its wealth and wonderful culture loses control of half of its country that means nyjer this is not unlike what happened prior to isis taking over large chunk of iraq and syria they lose control of the elements of security, and then extremists take over and there are major complications for everyone. rachel: there was a massacre over christmas but the prosecution and violence continues jihadist and many poor farmers it is just hard breaking

planet, you know, when we look at the missed opportunities of investment which could have generated more economic growth, it's billions if not more. and the sad thing about this is now we're spending a lot of money on green energy sources, there's no accountability for this money. the u.s. is just writing checks, and we don't even know if they're going to come to fruition or not. rachel: and, by the way, we're also writing checks to third world countries to offset, like, climate injustice. i mean, it's unbelievable when we have $34 trillion in debt, the kind of money we're putting into this, you know, green energy and i think a lot of scamming and a lot of grifting. you mentioned the worth. >> right. rachel: so we're now experiencing, you know, weather temperatures that are probably the coldest on record in some places in over 100 years, so how would that affect energy prices moving forward? >> you know, you can see it right now. we're seeing the price of,

rightings problem. it is probably the biggest one because it revolves around ideas what are you able to believe and practice in your own country. freely, and believe it or not here in america we have a lot of freedoms, many places they don't have the freedom to make up their own mind about their faith. rachel: a lot of christians are feeling silenced in america as well. but certainly in other countries -- to much more violent methods to prosecute them. so which religion is the most prosecuted based on the available data? >> well, christians are the most prosecuted minority faith that sounds strange for some people who know that america probably would consider itself the majority of christians as far as numbers of people. but you're talking about hundred million believers in christ in china who face oppression, monitoring, their religious practices are scored in social system as a negative.
