“Morsi say’s that the practice of Christianity has to be limited in the bounds of Sharia?  And our president says nothing, but sends Fighter jets and other weapons to this man, who is now making an alliance with Iran?  HELLO!  Please pray for the Christians in this region, they are coming under increased persecution.”

Excerpts from Canada Free Press

The criminal court of Beni Suef (south of Cairo) has sentenced an entire single-parent family to prison for converting to Christianity. Nadia Mohamed Ali, who was born into a Christian family, converted to Islam when she married Mustafa Mohamed Abdel-Wahab 23 years ago. When Mustafa died in 1991, Nadia decided to return to Christianity, bringing her seven children with her.

President Mohamed Morsi, who was elected last June and succeeded the secular reign of Hosni Mubarak (who is now in prison), pushed the new constitution through last year. The constitution limits the practice of Christianity because “religious freedom has to be understood within the boundaries of Sharia.” He prescribes that the highest Sunni authority should be referred to as an interpreter of the religion clause contained in the constitution.
