Afghan Christian Set Free

Posted Mar 28th, 2006 at 9:08 am in Politics, Religion & Faith

A couple days back, I blogged about an Afghan that was to be executed for converting to Christianity from Islam. After an international outcry, he’s been set free.

The problem I see with this story is that he wasn’t set free because people came to their senses and realized you shouldn’t run a country where you execute people for their beliefs. Far from it, the reason given for his release was “he was mentally unfit to stand trial.”

He’s seeking asylum outside of Afghanistan. He better get it too, and quick. The general public seems more than willing to handle his execution themselves for his so-called crime.
