Yeah, we all know what a farce Afghan "democracy" is, how it is still a haven for Islamic fundamentalism and how outside of Kabul, it is perpetually stuck in the seventh century. And here we have an Afghan Christian who is facing the death penalty for what? For converting to Christianity. How is it that there is any wonder why negative perceptions of Islam continue to increase? Shariah law is being interpreted to mean the government should kill a guy for his religious beliefs. Maybe he finds something appealling in the Christian idea of redemption. Maybe he is disgusted by how violent Islam in general has become. Maybe he just feels spiritually more comfortable with Christianity. Who knows? Regardless, if Karzai doesn't pardon this guy, he is no better than the mullahs in Iran.
For all of the American Christian(TM) crackheads out there, THIS is what persecution is, not saying Happy Holidays during the December holiday season.
