That is how it should be. As an Atheist, I feel that if my government tried
to take away my freedoms (or the freedoms of my countrymen) simply to save
my life they are doing a horrific act and I will attempt to resist with all
my power.

I would rather be blown up by a middle eastern terrorist than have to
present an ID card to the police at checkpoints. I would rather be shot than
have my country men lose their right to worship as they see fit.

I don't see a clear cut black and white case either way quite frankly.

The Turkish Gov't has a similar problem with the KDP.

So, if such an organisation shows the signs of coming in the the cold should
that not be encouraged ?

I'd lost track of it. And I don't see it as being a likely method of supposed
forced conversion either.

If I can imagine it, it can happen, and just because you're so
blinded by your arrogance that you can't is what will be your
undoing.
