Since this happened in Algeria, you already got your wish.
It is quite interesting that Algeria,not a supposedly radical Islamic nation,has laws forbidding people from NOT following Islamic religious law....even when those people are non-Muslims....one might almost think Islam is intolerant of other religions.
That's not right. We are so fortunate to be living in a country where the freedom of religious worship is protected and it is a good thing we don't oppress religious minorities in the US (no matter how badly some want to).
Exactly. Our freedom to practice personal religious beliefs is protected under the constitution. So why is it that so many of the same people who HATE Muslims want to do the same thing here--base American policy on their own personal religious beliefs in this country? I'm a devout Christian, but the version of Christianity I follow (you know, love your neighbor, all that good stuff that Jesus yammered on about) seems to be pretty different than that of some folks on the radical fringe right. I'm just glad I live in a country where their beliefs can't be forced down my throat.

Who exactly is trying to "base American policy on their own personal religious beliefs"??
Some examples might help.
