Again?! How distressing!

If Islam were such a great and powerful and true religion, it would allow freedom of conscience and belief for its practitioners, and hence gain and lose adherents through its natural cohesion, appeal, attractiveness, etc. or lack thereof. Instead it holds Muslims in a kind of spiritual and intellectual prison, whereby because they are born into it or come into it at some point in their lives they are obligated to continue in it for the balance of their natural lives, lest they find them cut short by those doing Allah’s job. It is so sad and maddening that this scenario constantly replays itself when it is discovered by the authorities in Islamic states that there are other religions out there that don’t operate like mafia organizations or cults that a Muslim might find more befitting of his understanding of and desire to worship God. They simply can’t handle it, and since they cannot extinguish the light within a person, they kill the person. Sorry, Afghanistan, but the light still shines, and Christianity was present in Bactria (Northern Afghanistan) centuries before Islam was ever conceived of. It is simply now coming back home.

God bless Said Musa, and all the Afghan Christians around the world.

I’d add to this: May God protect Said Musa, and all persecuted Christians around the world.

I posted the link without comment originally because I just didn’t have words to describe my thoughts. Stories like this make me thank God that I can practice my religion freely and not fear death for practicing my religion or converting, and make me realize how dangerous it can be in some countries to freely practice one’s religion.
 
I have just sent a message to the White House with a link to the most recent developments in this story. I urge everyone concerned about this man’s fate to do the same: whitehouse.gov/contact

I have no idea who will read it, but I figure that since families all over the U.S.A., Britain and elsewhere have been sending their sons and daughters to fight for a free Afghanistan for years now, we have the right to remind our leaders that we do not agree with these actions taken by our allies in the new “democratic” Afghanistan. Maybe if enough people make their opinions known someone in government will see fit to address it.

Yes, that’s a good reminder. Thank you.
