In 13 countries around the world, all of them Muslim, people who openly espouse atheism or reject the official state religion of Islam face execution under the law, according to a detailed study issued on Tuesday.

And beyond the Islamic nations, even some of the West's apparently most democratic governments at best discriminate against citizens who have no belief in a god and at worst can jail them for offenses dubbed blasphemy, it said.

This is why it's so ironic that liberals love everything Muslim while they despise Christians. They'll be the first to go when Muslims take over.

They do??
News to me.
Are you saying that Liberals think gays should be executed, or that under Sharia law, shoplifters should have a hand cut off? Maybe have the Morality Police patrolling the streets?

Care to elaborate on what you mean by "Liberals love everything Muslim", or are you just pulling "facts" out of your butt?

Since about 83 percent of Americans are Christians, and about 47 percent of Americans self-identify as either Democrats or left leaning, your claim that all liberals despise Christians would seem to be an impossibility. Or is that just more of that "math you do as a Republican to make yourself feel better" again?

That makes no sense, I am a liberal and I think all religions are stupid, but you are free to practice any religion in your private life.

Isn't that where extreme right-wing facts usually come from?

Karl Rove has introduced his mathematical prowess into this equation. Republican Math.

Yet the US has to be included among those nations that prosecute, convict, and sentence atheists to prison for blasphemy. So much for Christian tolerance.

Thankfully, blasphemy in the US is not a capital offense, but it is one that will get you put in prison. Just ask Abner Kneeland (who was not an atheist, but convicted of blasphemy nonetheless).
