Atheism & the Middle East.

Atheism & the Middle East.
Hey, how are you guys & gals ?

Many reports started to come up from the Middle East about atheism there. As uncommon as it might gets, nobody can deny it's a phenomena ; it was expected though to spread, in response to the spread of Salafi Islam in the region via Saudi Arabia.

The following report -from Al-Jazeera, discusses this phenomena in Egypt :

Death awaited many atheists who come out of the closet -at the hands of Salafi Muslims mainly-.

In Saudi Arabia, a new law was formed which declares atheists as terrorists :

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/...28389.html

Though, the law had other means to stop the Salafi backfire in Syria from burning Saudi Arabia.

Mainly, killing atheists & butchering them is a sentence dictated by Salafi Islam.
Salafi Islam simply overrides the Quran with scholars' words.

The Quran says :

Quote:( 256 ) There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

Salafi Islam is the branch of islam where such a verse is ignored & replaced with what is called 'the Hadith' ; the hadith is a group of books, the earliest of them is written 300 years after Mohammed's death, claiming via their authors that they contain "extra" information that the Quran didn't mention.. so Salafi islam is literally based on dumping the Quran & practicing a new religion.

In Salafi religion, they have a hadith says :

Quote:"Ibn Abbas have said : that the prophet mohammed had said :Kill whomever changes his religion". Bukhari book of Hadith.

As the above faith is spreading -which isis practices too-, the middle east is exploding with the counter-faith i.e atheism-.
