Well, I Guess I Won't Be Visiting Saudi Arabia Anytime Soon
Several European universities try hard to establish links with Saudi Arabia because they need their money (in return, they give them university "degrees"). Now, I'm afraid that some people who are involved in this business are atheists. I'm gonna have to alert them of the possibility of being accused as terrorists. :-)
Maybe us atheists should give up be-headings, stonings and allowing women to drive. I knew that would come back to bite us.

ReplyDeleteIs there a test for believing or not believing in god(s)? Can it be applied without my knowledge?

Saudi Arabia declares all atheists are terrorists?
ReplyDeleteWow! I never knew I had it in me. What a nice surprise.. :-)
Unfortunately, the effect of the kind of thing is even more persecution of those who can no longer believe in the fairy tale of Islam.
ReplyDeleteLooking at the case of Raif Badawi reminds me how we, and the rest of the secular world, need to keep putting pressure on the House of Saud.
