Awhile back Pope Benedict visited Saudi Arabia. I heard that one topic was he was negotiating with the king about him allowing christian churches to operate openly in Saudi Arabia. I think every religion should be completely free to seek converts an operate churches or temples or mosques in every nation on earth including KSA. One objection Muslims usually raise is: what about Vatican City? noncatholics can't open churches in Vatican City, it's the same with KSA, the home base of Islam. I thnk the analogy migh work better by comparing Vatican City with the city of Mecca. If we are going use that analogy, remember, there are Mosques less than a mile from Vatican City in the city of Rome, so, therefore there should be allowed nonMuslim houses of worship outside the city limits of Mecca. I think the people of KSA deserve the complete freedom to choose for themselves which religion they practice and they should be completely free to openly practice any religion they want in Saudi Arabia. That is simply a basic human right.
