March 28-2006:
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - An Afghan man who had faced the death penalty for converting from Islam to Christianity quickly vanished Tuesday after he was released from prison, apparently out of fear for his life with Muslim clerics still demanding his death.
Attention:
When there is a religion or religious philosophy that decrees the death of any convert or devotee, who decides to abdicate or excommunicate himself or herself from that religion. This is no longer a religion based on GOOD, but one based on subjectivity, personal sanctions, control, coercion, threats, and is downright EVIL.
This is the prevailing view of rational thinking people, who are still able to make their voices heard internationally, against this horrific declaration for death, to someone who chose to remove himself from that which he no longer believes in.
This is a graphic display of the lack of 'Freedom of Choice' in Afghanistan, a country that was liberated from religious sectarian fanatic rulers, by the world's most powerful democracy, (The USA), only to be embarrassed by this primitive Islamic punitive Law.
I hope that Abdul Rahman is able to get the asylum he so desperately needs at this time, from some friendly, political system/country.
Om Shanti.
