That's a quote from President Bush.
This poor guy in Afganistan converted to Christianity and now faces the death penalty.
Police arrested Abdul Rahman last month after discovering him in possession of a Bible during a custody dispute regarding his two daughters.
A prosecutor has raised questions about his mental state and a cabinet minister said he would not be executed if he were found to be unstable.
"I'm not an apostate. I'm obedient to God but I'm a Christian, that's my choice," Rahman told the hearing. He also said he was not mentally ill and would defend himself.

The discussion about religious groups trying to use the Minnesota state constitution to ban gay marriage, made me think of what can happen when any particular group has too much power or when innocent people just going about their lives have to live/die under intolerance.
