This is seriously *expletive.

Sudan on Thursday sentenced a 27-year-old mother to hang for apostasy when she refused to renounce her family and the Christian faith in which she was raised. She is also to receive 100 lashes for adultery beforehand

Welcome to civilized society. I wonder if the family member believed it would come to this. I suspect they did. Such a fun loving religion.

According to Amnesty International, she was arrested in August 2013 after a family member reported that she was committing adultery because of her marriage. The charge of apostasy was added the following February, when she said she was Christian.

That happens, sadly, religion is used as an excuse for all sorts of acts.

The other week Egypt sentenced over 500 people to death for being Muslim and supporters of Morsi. Some 16,000 have been arrested for being Islamists in Egypt since the military retook control.

There's idiocy on both sides of the coin.

Valid Islamic rule, since all beginning on. Respect it, it is a high civilisation.

Well if you think how long it too the christian church to say good bye to the inquisition (not voluntarily, of course), and that they forgave Galilei, err, ten years ago (?), we can look forward to the next centuries of the relatively young religion of islamic faith

Regarding the situation in Sudan though, it has always been invaded by arabian tribes since centuries, to collect slaves.
A situation for which b.t.w. the British Empire of those days, is not entireless innocent.
Meanwhile there is a counter-movement though, which the black christians call "arab-shooting", and the radicalism of some christians down there is not far behind radical Islam..

Clearly not if you want to live in Sudan.
