    Which is why I can't understand why you and Zu even bother. It's pointless, and all you are doing is going around in circles.

    Yep. It's why I stopped responding about the scripture. When he posted about the countries, it was personal experience that really drove me to answer. However, you're exactly right.

It's an absolute joke and shows you have no appreciation for the courage it takes and the hardships apostates endure in countries that have a Muslim majority.

    Getting back to the purpose and point of this thread. Bill Maher nailed it with his comments. Nothing he said was unfair, or imblanced, or didn't properly put the situation in proper context and persepctive.
    Extremists doing something is not muslim culture!!!! They are extremists!!!! Just like christian extremists doing something is not christian culture!!! christians are against abortions but does that mean they advocate the bombings of abortion clinics? christians are against homosexuality, when a gay person is killed in a hate crime do they support that? Your assertion that all of islam is a bunch of angry muslim extremists who will kill you if you blink wrong is warped and bigoted its really pathetic. Like i said before would like to take responsibilty for the atrocities from christian terror groups? The fact is millions of people leave islam every year, you keep back peddaling your arguement to now its they cant leave it without fear , how would you know that of the millions living islam each year were all in fear or they all suffered some kind of reprisal or repercussions? The answer you dont you are making an assumption based on what you think of muslim radicals.

    I'm really getting tired reading this thread. It's like watching a dog chasing his tail, it is fun for a while, but then it is just boring.

    What say we wrap up this discussion? I really don't see a fitting conclusion coming up anytime soon.

    Sometimes people just have to agree to disagree. You know what I mean?

    I doubt you could find 1% of Christians or Jews of any denomination that would think people who leave their faith should be punished by death. To claim there's little or no difference between Muslims and people of other faith's in how they view converts or those that become atheists is complete ignorance.

    Thirty two people were killed and hundreds injured as a rally in the capital of Bangladesh turned violent. Police used tear gas to disperse thousands of Islamist protesters in the streets of Dhaka who demanded execution for “blasphemous” blogging.

    The protesters are reportedly the activists from the Hefajat-e-Islam group, which blames some Internet users for blasphemy; accusing people of using their blogs to spread atheism and apparent lies about Islam.

    "One point, One demand: Atheists must be hanged", chanted the demonstrators as they marched along at least six highways, blocking transport between Dhaka and other cities and towns.

    The demonstrators gathered in the capital’s Motijheel commercial district, amounting to between 150,000 to 200,000 people according to AFP. On their way, they set shops and vehicles on fire, according to police accounts.

    The mass exodus of Christians from the Muslim world

    A mass exodus of Christians is currently underway. Millions of Christians are being displaced from one end of the Islamic world to the other.
    We are reliving the true history of how the Islamic world, much of which prior to the Islamic conquests was almost entirely Christian, came into being.
    The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom recently said: “The flight of Christians out of the region is unprecedented and it’s increasing year by year.” In our lifetime alone “Christians might disappear altogether from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt.”
    Ongoing reports from the Islamic world certainly support this conclusion: Iraq was the earliest indicator of the fate awaiting Christians once Islamic forces are liberated from the grip of dictators.
    The 2010 Baghdad church attack, which saw nearly 60 Christian worshippers slaughtered, is the tip of a decade-long iceberg.
    In 2003, Iraq’s Christian population was at least one million. Today fewer than 400,000 remain—the result of an anti-Christian campaign that began with the U.S. occupation of Iraq, when countless Christian churches were bombed and countless Christians killed, including by crucifixion and beheading.
    The 2010 Baghdad church attack, which saw nearly 60 Christian worshippers slaughtered, is the tip of a decade-long iceberg.
    Now, as the U.S. supports the jihad on Syria’s secular president Assad, the same pattern has come to Syria: entire regions and towns where Christians lived for centuries before Islam came into being have now been emptied, as the opposition targets Christians for kidnapping, plundering, and beheadings, all in compliance with mosque calls telling the populace that it’s a “sacred duty” to drive Christians away.
    In October 2012 the last Christian in the city of Homs—which had a Christian population of some 80,000 before jihadis came—was murdered. One teenage Syrian girl said: “We left because they were trying to kill us… because we were Christians…. Those who were our neighbors turned against us. At the end, when we ran away, we went through balconies. We did not even dare go out on the street in front of our house.”
    In Egypt, some 100,000 Christian Copts have fled their homeland soon after the “Arab Spring.” In September 2012, the Sinai’s small Christian community was attacked and evicted by Al Qaeda linked Muslims, Reuters reported. But even before that, the Coptic Orthodox Church lamented the “repeated incidents of displacement of Copts from their homes, whether by force or threat.
    Displacements began in Ameriya [62 Christian families evicted], then they stretched to Dahshur [120 Christian families evicted], and today terror and threats have reached the hearts and souls of our Coptic children in Sinai.”
    Iraq, Syria, and Egypt are part of the Arab world. But even in “black” African and “white” European nations with Muslim majorities, Christians are fleeing.

    In Mali, after a 2012 Islamic coup, as many as 200,000 Christians fled. According to reports, “the church in Mali faces being eradicated,” especially in the north “where rebels want to establish an independent Islamist state and drive Christians out… there have been house to house searches for Christians who might be in hiding, churches and other Christian property have been looted or destroyed, and people tortured into revealing any Christian relatives.” At least one pastor was beheaded.
    Even in European Bosnia, Christians are leaving en mass “amid mounting discrimination and Islamization.” Only 440,000 Catholics remain in the Balkan nation, half the prewar figure.
    Problems cited are typical: “while dozens of mosques were built in the Bosnian capital Sarajevo, no building permissions [permits] were given for Christian churches.” “Time is running out as there is a worrisome rise in radicalism,” said one authority, who further added that the people of Bosnia-Herzegovina were “persecuted for centuries” after European powers “failed to support them in their struggle against the Ottoman Empire.”
    And so history repeats itself.
    One can go on and on:
    In Ethiopia, after a Christian was accused of desecrating a Koran, thousands of Christians were forced to flee their homes when “Muslim extremists set fire to roughly 50 churches and dozens of Christian homes.”
    In the Ivory Coast—where Christians have literally been crucified—Islamic rebels “massacred hundreds and displaced tens of thousands” of Christians.
    In Libya, Islamic rebels forced several Christian religious orders, serving the sick and needy in the country since 1921, to flee.
    To anyone following the plight of Christians under Islamic persecution, none of this is surprising. As I document in my new book, “Crucified Again: Exposing Islam’s New War on Christians,” all around the Islamic world—in nations that do not share the same race, language, culture, or economics, in nations that share only Islam—Christians are being persecuted into extinction. Such is the true face of extremist Islamic resurgence.
