This is telling. Egypt’s Sisi called for reform of Islam several years ago. Nothing happened. And even though he supplanted the Muslim Brotherhood regime, it is clear that Islam still holds sway over the people of Egypt to a massive degree. Christians are persecuted wholesale (while the world yawns). While jihadis do essentially anything they want in the Sinai and elsewhere, the government is not cracking down on them, but on groups that Islam despises, including atheists. Egypt may not be ruled by the Muslim Brotherhood, but it is still ruled by Islam, and so large groups of people suffer as a result.
“Atheist blogger arrested in Egypt for anti-Islam criticism,” The New Arab, May 5, 2018:
An atheist blogger who was previously detained for promoting his anti-religion views, was arrested by Egyptian police, a rights lawyer said on Saturday.
Story continues below advertisementSherif Gaber was in police custody on Saturday and set to be questioned by the prosecution on Sunday, Gamal Eid, head of the Arabic Network for Human Rights Information, told AFP.
“He has been arrested and should be questioned tomorrow,” Eid said.
It was not immediately clear when Gaber was arrested.
In late March, Gaber tweeted that “some Muslim lawyers” filed a complaint against him with the attorney general for his critical views on Islam.
“I’ll probably get arrested in the next few days, but I don’t want you to get mad,” he wrote.
In 2013, Gaber was detained for allegedly promoting atheism – a punishable act in Egypt under a law that bans “insults to religions”.
The young Egyptian regularly uploads videos on his YouTube channel, where he criticises religion, most notable Islam, to some 150,000 subscribers….

Any criticism of islam is a crime because once islam is looked at critically, it is easy to see that it is a sloppily written accumulation of half baked thoughts, contradictions, out right lies and superstitious fantasy. No sane person would ever support it, which is why the criminally insane use murder as the bond that holds islam together.

Let’s see, ” … is better than islam ??”
By your OWN ADMISSION you have performed oral sex, on YOUR OWN male offspring. Not did you solely admit to it … You BRAGGED about it and asked, “What’s wrong with that?”
Five times a day, moslem males have homosexual orgies, where they get all buns up ‘n kneelin’ and shake their backsides HIGH in the air … to attract other homosexual moslems ….. Talk about a homosexual gang-bang orgy ….
Yes, semenjerkoff … I would think that most ANYTHING would be better than that …. You foul, vile, perverted pedophile homosexual!

Gaber has a lot of guts. But isn’t the existence of God demonstrated daily? Like the downfall of hypocrite Schneiderman as NY Atty.Gen.? DJT predicted it in a tweet 4.5 yrs. ago.[thx,A.C.]

I wonder whether Egypt today would be better off atheist than Muslim, to be honest.

Human society has been structured to have some controlling religion or other as a part of the power base. The alternative wouldn’t be athiesm but some other religion (maybe one that has still to be invented!) Islam is based on fear & exclusivity so it will keep going until people realise that they don’t need to shackle themselves with it.

The problem is free speech via monarchy is interpreted as treasonous.
