hats off to themIn the US, that implements more of the Islamic principles of 'equality, justice and freedom of religion', the response would be nothing.
I am also saying that Minorities should be given protection. Most of the police force is saving corrupt politicians a$$. I am all for saving lives no matter who they are and what they believe.The various Christian denominations would likely reject me as a Christian, but the State itself would not care - I would not be threatened with imprisonment for calling myself a Christian, and the State would protect me in case of 'violent Christian mobs' threatening to lynch me.
Agreed with that.And by the way, principles of 'equality, justice and freedom of religion for all' are not 'American' or 'Western' principles alone, they are mentioned in the Quran, and they are self-evidently true principles for all of humanity, not just Western societies.
Nowhere in Islam does it condone discrimination and prejudice against other faiths, and those that continue to support such discrimination do so because as a majority they fear the minority and do not wish the minority to have the same rights as them.
I agree. It was this very Majority vs. Minority that led to the creation of Pakistan.
"threatened with imprisonment for calling myself a Christian"
Now tell me, is there any law that says that where ever you find a Ahmadi, imprison him?
