Well, the statement in contention is "The levels of religiosity in this country rival that of many Muslim theocracies".

That does narrow down the Islamic states that qualify to only a few of the most backward. In that subset, the religous oppression probably does surpass even those commonly found in Alabama.

However, Saudi Arabia is arguably not a "theorcracy", even if regliously extremely conservative, so comparing Alabama to Saudi Arabia does not address the originsal contention.
