So? No doubt they wouldn't be too keen on me for being an atheist. Anyway, instead of focussing on the small minority of Afghani Christians being perserecuted under Sharia, how about the 50% who are women?

[ogrilion]

because everyone knows about the women, where as the number of Christians being persecuted in muslim countries is quite a bit greater than you, if that comment is anything to go by, think.

[neuralbuddha]

Is it it greater than 50%? Then I think I would be corect in saying it was a minority. Is it anywhere near 50%? 10%? 1%?

[ogrilion]

but not nessaserily a small minority.

percentage of what. are you asking what percentage of the populaiton of these countries are persicuted christians or what percentage of christians are persicuted?

Oh my, I do hope that he stays true to his faith and is found to be sane, but that the west puts enougth presure on Afghanistan to protect him from harm. I would see that as a victory for civil rights.

If he is shown to be mentaly unstable, that would just be an insult to his faith and a huge cop out, where as if he renounced his religion, I don't think anyone would belive that he had donse so because he belived in Islam all of a sudden.

Well, that's that resolved, in a fairly positive fashion thankfully. The whole mental incompetence thing is a bit unfortunate as it allows them to go throught the whole process again but with the pressure they went through I don't see it happening in the foreseeable future.
