Saudis Intolerant Interfaith Gathering Concludes at UN

I've been hearing quite a bit about the Saudis leading a religious interfaith gathering the past few days at the U.N. and I thought it quite ironic, given the present history of the repressive religious regime the Saudis are famous for.

Let us remember to keep our brothers and sisters in Christ living under this repressive regime in prayer, and also to pray for the lost muslims within this regime and its leaders.

If the campaign succeeds, states that presume to speak in the name of religion will be able to crush religious freedom not only in their own country, but abroad.

Another stark irony hangs over the UN special session this week. Saudi Arabia is one of the world's worst abusers of religious freedom..
