Here's To Those Who Died So I Can Speak Up For What I Believe!
Christians are outraged over the fact that Abdul Rahman, a 41-year-old former medical aid worker faces the death penalty under Islamic laws for becoming a Christian in Afganistan. I am outraged too.
There is absolutely no reason why anyone should be beaten, tortured or executed for their religious or nonreligious beliefs. But just like our apostate forefathers were beaten, tortured, and burned alive by Christians in order that I can have the freedom to deny my former Christian beliefs, so also there will be many former Muslims who will have to die before they will have the same freedoms. The problem is that Christians don't realize this is exactly what they did to suppress dissent and apostasy in past centuries. But I'm thankful for every one of our apostate forefathers. They helped give me my freedoms. Perhaps Christians should once again read about their faith.
To anyone who says Christianity is as bad as Islam, I say that I applaud the freedom to dissent without fear of dying. This would be a start for them.
