Religious Persecution
I enjoy reading a site I link to from my blogroll: The Religious Policeman. He's a Saudi living in the UK and keeps us up to date on just how sweet and loving our good dear Saudi friends are in the Land of Black Gold. Forgive my sarcasm, but I'm particularly sensitive because I've experienced that fascism first-hand while in the U.S. Air Force. It seems that the religion of peace, which we all know Islam to be, continues to be consternated by religious freedom:
Although the Christian church is being physically attacked in a number of countries, for example Pakistan, Iraq and Nigeria, nowhere is it actually underground. Or is it?
Well (and you already know the answer) yes, it is. In Saudi Archaica, the Land That Forgot Time, it is illegal to worship in any religion other than Islam. In public, that is. In private, in theory, you are free to do as you wish. But theories are of course just theories.
