Sentenced to death for marrying a non muslim

    More crazy religious shenanigans from the religion of peace
    A Muslim-by-birth Sudanese woman who married a Christian man was sentenced to death after she refused to recant her Christian faith, her lawyer said.

    Meriam Ibrahim, whose father was Muslim but her mother was an Orthodox Christian from Ethiopia, was convicted of "apostasy" on Sunday and given four days to repent and escape death, lawyer Al-Shareef Ali al-Shareef Mohammed said.

    The 26 year old, who is eight months pregnant, was sentenced after that grace period expired, Mohammed said.

    And the sexist double standard, just for good measure
    As in many Muslim nations, Muslim women in Sudan are prohibited from marrying non-Muslims, though Muslim men can marry outside their faith. By law, children must follow their father's religion.
