As is—or should be—well known by now, wherever Islam has sway, the advertisement of any other faith or creed becomes forbidden, for fear of “completion.” Accordingly, reports indicate that close U.S. friend-and-ally Saudi Arabia—the birthplace of Islam where not one single church is allowed to exist—has now decreed the death penalty for anyone caught trying to smuggle Bibles or any other “publications that have prejudice to any other religious belief other than Islam.” The Christian Post reports:
The Saudi Arabian government has reportedly passed a law that imposes the death penalty on people caught smuggling Bibles into the majority-Muslim country.
According to the HeartCry Missionary Society, the Saudi government issued an official statement signifying that capital punishment may now be used on those who smuggle Bibles into the desert nation, where the royal family upholds a strict Wahhabi brand of Sunni Islam.
“A strict Wahhabi brand of Sunni Islam” is simply another way of saying a literalist Islam based on the words and teachings of the Koran and Islam’s prophet Muhammad.
The society’s report added that the death penalty, which usually comes in the form of beheadings, can also be used against people who simply distribute the Bible and all other “publications that have prejudice to any other religious belief other than Islam.” This means that anyone handing out any kind of religious literature that is not of Islamic faith can legally be executed.
For an idea of Saudi-style beheadings, the video of a recent one can be viewed here.

A religion so un-secure that is afraid of anything that may say otherwise… Like the dog that barks the loudest, is the most afraid

The more something is forbidden to humans, the more curiosity is generated. So people who might not otherwise be interested in reading the Bible, upon learning they are forbidden to do so, may wish to. But besides that, the True God, not the false god, satan, will ensure that any people having a “heart disposed to righteousness” (Proverbs 15:28) or one who is “rightly disposed to everlasting life” (Acts 13:48) will have the opportunity to learn about Him.
In the meantime, He is taking notice of those who are depraved in their worship of satan. And He does not forget those who love Him and obey His commandments and may also die as a result.

Ah the tolerance just oozes out of muslims like sun shine and rainbows!
And the rest of the world wants to welcome this into every home and into every child.

American Allay. The country of Allah. The birthplace of Islam. There is one law for the rich and powerful in Saudi land. We leave to gamble and fornicate and to be free of the curse of Islam.. You poor suckers who have to live in Saudi land, OBEY the Koran or else, you know we will cut your head off. Islam is a religion that exists for one reason only. It uses FEAR as its weapon to keep people in line. That fear includes beheadings, lashing, imprisonment, maiming (cutting of limbs arms and legs or maiming some other way) and murders plus kidnapping and slavery. Islam cannot compete on a level playing field with other religions. It is a religion of HATE. Hate cannot compete with all the other religions which are based on LOVE for thy fellow man and have a golden rule.
