26. You know about the honor killings.
Girls killed as a punishment for being raped,or suspected of being raped. Killed for choosing the wrong boy. The abuse really is just off the charts. It is well know through out the world because it happens that often.
I have no love for baptists, but at the worst they are annoying. Have you ever heard of christians in this country killing their own children out of honor?
What happens when you publicly denounce jesus. How about an artist submerging a christian symbol in a glass of urine and publishing photos of it? Do the christians freak out? Sure they boycot companies. Big deal.
And what about if something negative is said about the Muslim religion? Riots.Fires. Death threats. Murder.

There is a difference.
I am pagan. And what do the christians in this country do to me as a result of me rejecting their religion? They pray for me. Wow, that's harsh.
If this was a muslim country I would be executed.Or at the very least caned and imprisoned until I accepted islam.
