The Iranian embassy to Armenia refuted the Asr Iran website publication about a great number of burnt Gospels that were found in an Iranian village.
The website quoted Ayetullah Vahid Horasani as saying that “Christianity and all other non-Muslim religions are vicious and must be eliminated.”
As media department advisor at the Iranian embassy, Mr. Hamid Murathani said in a conversation with a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, “taking into account the doubtfulness of the source and respect of the Iranian leaders and people towards national minorities as well as Iran’s efforts for establishment of inter-confessional dialogue, spreading of such misinformation aims to cause a split between religions.”
