Conversion from Islam = DEATH

 
Rahman faces death for converting to Christianity.
This case exposes problems with the Afgan Constitution..it has a clause which supports Islamic law, and a clause which supports the UN Charter.
      Islamic Law says death to any who convert from Islam.
      UN Charter allows for freedom of religion, including the right to change religions.
Rahman choose to return to Afganistan.
Rahman choose to make an issue out of his religion.
Rahman wishes to be a Christian Martyr. 
 
His wish will be granted, Islam the Death Cult demands it.
 
Rahman is a brave man to die for his beliefs.
 
The background from the Chicago Tribune:
 
Rahman left Afghanistan shortly after the birth of his daughters, now 12 and 13. He and his wife divorced. While overseas, Rahman converted to Christianity. He returned to Afghanistan about three years ago and moved back in with his father and daughters. He left for months at a time, working at a restaurant or as a security guard.

He stayed with cousins, who asked him to leave after he said he was a Christian. Eventually, Rahman moved back with his father.

"He is my son," said Manan, crying. "But if a son does not care about the dignity of his family, the dignity of his father, God can take him away. You cannot make anything out of such a son. He is useless."

He complained about Rahman's behavior to local police, but did not mention his religious conversion. At first, police asked the family to try to resolve its own problems. Then in early February, Rahman showed up at the police station and complained about how his family treated him. While there, he announced he had become a Christian.

Police said they had no choice except sending the case to central police command.

"We knew he had converted, but we didn't want to get involved in religious issues," said Col. Abdul Mohammed, the deputy commander of the police district. "So we filed a report on the family's problems to send to the central police. And he insisted over and over, `Please write in my file that I converted to Christianity.'"

On Thursday, the first day of the trial, Rahman appeared in court with no lawyer. Prosecutor Abdul Wasi said Rahman had been told repeatedly to repent and come back to Islam, but Rahman refused. Wasi called Rahman a traitor.
