Don't Press the "Like" Button in Saudi Arabia

Quote:
Raif Badawi, the Saudi Arabian blogger whose punishment of 1,000 lashes has prompted international condemnation, may now face the death penalty.

In 2013, a judge threw out the charge of apostasy against the 31-year-old blogger after he assured the court that he was a Muslim. The evidence against him had included the fact that he pressed the “Like” button on a Facebook page for Arab Christians.
Good grief. They are so insecure of their false prophet and religion, they freak out over someone "liking" a Christian Facebook page and now, allegedly, want to retry him and impose the death penalty?

To be fair, it's unlikely he'll be put to death over this. I'm even doubtful he'll be retried, since he's already received 50 lashes (over pressing "Like" on a Christian FB page and criticizing SA's clerics.) Plus, he's "reassured the court he's a muslim."

Not sure how you can reassure the court you're a muslim. Maybe he also "liked" a bunch of muslim pages on Facebook.
