Execute The Bastards! (Muslims In Muslim Majority Countries On Apostates)
Jonathan Turley was right on in his assessment in this blog item about how we prop up governments that are horrible on human rights:

A new poll by the Pew Research Center offers an disturbing insight into the views of the majority of Muslims in some countries on the subject of apostasy. With blasphemy, apostasy remains one of the greatest threats to human rights and free speech in the world with people continuing to be arrested for rejecting Islam. Some 78 percent of Afghan Muslims support putting former Muslims to death for rejecting Islam. Our Afghan "allies" actually had the highest support for this basic denial of human rights -- a system that we prop up with American lives and treasure. In Egypt and Pakistan, 64 percent support executing for apostasy.

...We continue to treat our Muslim allies as enlightened governments when many still embrace this denial of a basic human right (as with common denial of other rights of woman and religious minorities). These countries cannot by definition be considered part of the "free world" when they mandate the execution of people for exercising this fundamental right to choose the religion (or the lack of religion) of their choice. Viewed from this perspective, we are spending billions on governments oppressing their citizens while our leaders continue to espouse the centrality of faith in their public lives.

Civil libertarians do not view such rights as a "western" or "American" view. Many often try to defend these oppressive nations by saying that we have no right to judge others.

Those who do are wrong. This is one of the most basic human rights -- freedom of thought.

The WaPo report on the Pew Poll is here. And another Turley blog item, about a Moroccan student reportedly in hiding from police after posing with a sign, "I am proud to be an atheist." Turley blogs:

It is not a crime to be an atheist in Morocco. However, there is an offense for "Shaking the Muslim's faith" which includes criticizing Islam or promoting any other religion. That offense can bring a three year sentence. It takes considerable courage therefore to step forward and demand the right to reject Islam and faith generally.

Habib posted a picture of himself with a sign reading "I am proud to be an atheist." In 2012, Imad founded Masayminch ("We will not fast") with more than 600 persons signed in. He is also a member of the Global Secular Humanist Movement. He has also organized a Facebook site for "non-believers, atheists and non-Muslims." For this advocacy, he has been the subject of death threats and now a police investigation.

Hespress, Morocco's leading news website featured him in a piece entitled "Infidels of Islam: stories of Moroccans who went out of the flock." It quoted him as saying "it just takes an objective reading of the Quran to understand that these are myths invented by humans". The led to the police investigation. While the news report stated that Habib has "a grudge" against Islam, the article may serve to show other young people that there are those who reject faith.

That's going particularly well for him.

Meanwhile, I "rejected faith" in America. People occasionally ask me questions about heaven or whether I think it's possible to be moral without religion. This requires me to answer, not flee and hide in somebody's garage.
