yet...its nice how they are allowed to practice their religion and wont be arrested for simply being a muslim, isnt it? bigotry by individuals cannot be compared to systemic persecution |
This is one of the few times that you will see me agree with you in any way - state ordered persecution of people for their religious beliefs is wrong. However Christian states have hardly been blame free in the past, ever since the time of Constantine until a couple of hundred years ago Christian states were extremely bad for persecution of other religions and even persecutions of nearly the same religions (how many wars were there between protestants and catholics?).
The Islamic states will eventually mature and adopt secular laws that do not allow the state to persecute peopel of other religions - you will probably see this happen within the next fifty years.
