    In Indonesia, an atheist faces up to 11 years for stating that God does not exist on his facebook profile. He has been beaten by mobs, and locals have called for his beheading. So much for tolerance within Islam aye? You can read more about the case here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/may/03/indonesia-atheists-religious-freedom-aan

    Utterly absurd that such a thing could occur in 2012.

    "I only want to see a better world and help create a better world," he says. "If I cannot … then I would prefer to die."

    That it so sad frown.gif

    Do some people really fear the godless that much? He is being treated as if he is some sort of monster.

    They fear reality that much. They are all clinging onto the idea of eternal life so much, that they will punish anyone who dares to make them face the reality of their mortality.
