Video of the week -- Arab atheists speak out



Yes, they exist. And for every one who has the guts to speak out like this, there must be hundreds, maybe thousands, who have abandoned religion but stay silent about it out of understandable fear.

You have to admire the incredible courage of these people. They're actually showing their faces and who knows what kind of wacko is taking notice?

Definitely -- especially since Islamic law actually imposes the death penalty for leaving Islam, and there are plenty of nutters out there who would like to enforce that.

Good for them! I hope the people around them respect them enough to help protect them from the whackos who believe their god wants them to kill people.

Let's hope so. A lot of them seem to live in Western countries (atheists living in Arab countries would be a lot less likely to speak up).
