I support this petition.
I cannot continue to support this war if Sharia law is going to be practised. This is not what our US soldiers died for! They died for democracy, not Sharia!
I support this petition. This death sentence pronounced by an ally of the U.S is an outrage but also an eye-opener. This battle is spiritual and christians everywhere have the means to fight it. Pray for the plea of the persecuted church in the muslim world.
I support this petition. I would like to add that this man has been accused of this so-called 'crime' as part of a custody battle for his two children, and the chargesare thus motivated by personal malice. Peaceable adherants of ANY religion are in modern society throughout the world are not condemned simply for belonging to a particular faith. I urge this petition's recipients to bear in mind "do unto others as you would have them do unto you". Trying a Muslim for simply being one would be equally unacceptable.
All international and ethical law cries out against this outrage. Afganistan must reject such medieval customs and join the civilized world. I support this petition.
I support this petition.
I whole heartedly AGREE with the following letter.
Dear Editor,
I am writing to express my extreme displeasure and that of many other Americans regarding the trial of Abdul Rahman, taking place presently in Kabul. As I understand it, Mr. Rahman faces possible execution for the simple "crime" of converting to Christianity. Fundamental to any free and democratic society - for which, I might note, brave Americans have spilled blood on Afghani soil - is the freedom of individual conscience. It is intolerable that a state that wishes friendly terms with the United States of America should maintain standards of ideological totalitarianism that warrant death for merely claiming the name of Jesus Christ.
This is an injustice. Abdul Rahman must be exonerated immediately, and Afghanistan must end this barbaric practice of murdering converts to Christianity. Whatever appropriateness or popularity the practice may have seemed to possess in the 7th century is decidedly outdated.
Sincerely,
Brian G. Mattson
Proud Citizen, U.S.A.
Our brave soldiers have died, are dying, to help the new Afghan government survive. This act shows contempt for their sacrifice. If this man dies, let the Afghan government defend itself.
I support this petition. Why can't the USA send him to Yale? Is this why we freed Afghanistan? I hope all who sign this petition will read Psalm 91 for Abdul Rahman.
