LagosShia:

In some countries populated by christians,there are christian sects banned from preaching.up to this day (after the fall of communism) jehovah's witnesses is an outlawed group in russia among other "christian countries".if western countries that are officially and legall secular countries ban preaching then muslims there as others would have to obey the law.minarets are banned in switzerland for instance.its not by force to preach.only christian fanatics play all these pranks.mostly the poor and uneducated muslims are target of the missionary campaign.if a christian comes to preach and finds out I'm an educated and well informed muslim,he immediately leaves.he sees his time and preaching and bribe as investment to "catch fish".he wants those he's sure of catching and deceiving especially on bribery and reward.the iranian government have the responsibility to protect its citizens from such deceit.the iranian government also opposes preaching of any other belief because the system is based on islamic principles.it would be a contradiction for instance to have a democratic system,and some people promoting communism.that's where the politics and the issue of regime change (america's wet dream in iran) comes to play.

The western countries don't consider themselves as "christian countries" in the legal or constitutional sense.that is why all religions are treated on a level field.yet still muslims face discrimination.the west views its values as above islam and christianity.when the pope wanted a clause mentioning europe's "christian heritage" in the european constitution,europeans refused.
the organizations outlaw in those countries u mentioned are outlaw because of their anti government posture. None is done for religious reasons. The muslems facing discrimination are in that situation because of the activities of some muslems in the name of Islam.

While I disagree with the sentence I think Iran might see such actions as defensive especially as America is racking up pressure on the regime, then again the issue of dubious preaching, christians need to come clean on this, christians have been known to falsify the quran to win convert all this I think christian missionary groups need to come out and condemn such evil practice, I believe the Iranian regime would take a second look at the ruling or give him a suspended sentence! But christians need to do something about this evangelism by lies it is very disgraceful

There is nothing wrong with Islam that isnt wrong with Christianity or any other religion for that matter.


The only problem is people who think like you. Add that to a religion and "Houston... we have a problem" undecided

LagosShia: What does a christian living in america (even though iranian american) have to do with going all the way to iran on a mission he knows is illegal? Missionary work in iran is illegal.many of these evangelical pastors have been exposed of bribing the poor iranian youths especially with promise of US visa/citizenship upon converting to christianity.the iranian system of governance is built upon Islam.attempting to preach is viewed as a treasonable offense because it works against the regime or the system of things.this is viewed with high suspicion as part of america's war on iran for regime change.at a point in america being a communist is against the law and a criminal offense.likewise,even in nigeria you can't preach communism or advocate beliefs contrary to the system.you can't aim at regime change and think you'd be taken lightly.

People should know this incident is more political.it has nothing to do with Islam Vs Christianity or Muslims Vs Christians.indigenous iranian christians who have existed centuries in iran are given their place and due rights to survive as a community,without been offended in terms of existence.
The koran supports the persecution of Christians!!

There are laws in every country, and there are universal human rights, laws as well. Our governments all signed up for these universal human rights, it's in the UN charter. Freedom of religion is one of these. If the muslim world is not even willing to respect this basic universal law, then they surely don't deserve any respect, or do they? Really, they shouldn't be engaged if they insist on remaining in the stone age, they should keep their cancer to themselves till they grow up. Make no extraordinarily silly demands, actually make no demands at all. More or else like they do here on NL.

Now one could bring up say china and point out that those eediots do the same, however how many times do you come across chinese in foreign countries proselytizing? Demanding their own 'sharia', bombing embassies, shouting chinaphobia, etc? Or has china historically had an excellent relationship with the west?

hmm... Old predictable slew foot at it again hunh? If he cant get u to bend he tries to force u dwn if that's not enuff he tries to kill u. Satan again. In the garden of evil he got man to bend - with cain and abel it was snuff out . With JEsus he first tried to get him to bend (didnt work) so he moved to snuff him out (using the political regime of the time. JESUS WAS TRIED AND SENTENCED AS A POLITICAL CRIMINAL! But to God b the glory Jesus death sealed satan's eternal defeat) AND HERE in iran he's playing the political card again. So so predctably Satan. It always comes to force and threats at the end the day. Boko haram cannot dialog because as satans proteges they must mimic their father, they must kill to make their point. Al qaieda must snuff out lives to send a message. Islam a religion of peace or satan's mouthpiece!?

In Iran, if you are breaking Islamic rules, you have broken the state rule. There is no division between the religion and state (or at least that is the idea).
