Saudi Arabia killing Christians

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...lim-faith.html

Would they be ok if we killed Christians who converted to Islam?

There is no evidence in the article that the man is a Christian, to the contrary, the article says the man "cursed God" and then tore up the Koran and kicked it with his shoe.

Re: Saudi Arabia killing Christians

You are correct!
How about would they be ok if we killed Christians who renounced their faith?

There is no country that I know of with a law that would put to death a Christian for renouncing his faith in God....

I forgot you were here.

Christians should follow the Quran in this. Surah 2:156. You should not kill kids, or native savages, or gays, or anyone else because they do not believe like you.

I believe it was a typo. Surah2:256 would be the right one.

My bad.

Sahih International
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.
