Doesn't matter which religion it is, but a theocracy based on Christianity or Islam appears to rule in the loony department.

Of these two evils, which would you prefer and which would you try to get the fcuk away from?

If a country was run according to a strict Christian code, requiring I be killed for not believing in God, or working on the sabbath, then I would prefer to live in Thailand which, by comparison, would appear pretty sane,

If is a tiny word with huge meaning...but in the real world?

A SUDANESE Christian woman who faces death threats after a court cleared her of apostasy has been charged with forgery after trying to leave the country, a lawyer says.
“She is arrested,” Mohanad Mustafa told AFP on Wednesday.
The charge against Meriam Yahia Ibrahim Ishag, 26, relates to the travel documents she was carrying when authorities stopped the family from leaving Sudan on Tuesday following an annulment of her apostasy death sentence.
Ishag is also charged with providing false information, Mustafa said.
She was detained by national security agents at Khartoum airport, despite the presence of US diplomats who were escorting her and her family, her American husband Daniel Wani said.
Police are investigating the authenticity of her travel documents, Mr Wani said.
“We are supposed to be there,” he said, insisting there is nothing wrong with the travel documents.
Mr Wani said the family are fearful of staying in Sudan where they are facing
death threats from extremist Muslims.
“We are worried. That’s why we want to get out of here as soon as possible,” he said on Wednesday from a Khartoum police station where his wife was being questioned.
The family and its two children, including a baby girl born while Ms Ishag was on death row, were moved to the police station later on Tuesday.
