no free religion? in other countries

[Lolos]

Recently when I went to Mexico in a 2 month vacation i went to a place called Chiapas. Now this Mexican state is currently being attacked by a guerrilla force. I was in this state for a pretty long time. I met up with some protestants that I know and they told me that life is hard for them because they can't do anything they want such as going to church or anything because the guerilla army kills them, or religious extremists kill them. but i just wondering wat are your thoughts in this if there's anything like this in your country that a religion (any kind) is being persecuted by a group or such, in this case of mine protestants are the people affected, but i would like to see if you know of any countries that a minority religion is suffering this type of thing. thanks. if u wanna find information on Chiapas look on google, i dont know if it's allowed to put a direct site on here. google, type "chiapas, christians, murder", and there's a lot about it. k thx

A few of the more dictatoral Arab nations discourage all religons exept islam (such as Afganistan before the tailiban fell). The Soviet Union was an Atheistic nation. However I live in the united states and the only religous practices that are illegal are also blatent crimes; theft, human sacrafice, murder, assult, burglary, and other feloneys.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Since I don't live in a country without religous freedom I really don't know what to say.

it is estimated by some that there were more Christian Martyrs alone in the last century than all the ones before it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Check here for a site on Christian martyrs...I have not information on other groups, though of course the atheistic nations would seemingly repress all of them.
