All those who practise Islam should ask themselves this: Is it morally right for someone who is a Muslim to be killed because he/she no longer wishes to follow this religion?

CAIR( a Muslim human rights group) and many other Muslim organizations also protested against this. Afghanistan is starving, women are being raped by warlords and terrorism and torture are rife yet the world chooses to focus it's attention on some loser evangelist. It's nice to see everybody has their priorities right.
We can't compare the U.S. and Afghanistan. They operate on two different political and legal systems. One is secular, the other is theocratic, or quasi-theocratic. If the system in America was theocratic I suspect that heretics would probably be burnt at the stake as we saw in Europe when it was theocratically run. But it would be a very different place, that's for sure.
The reason why islam has survived and thrived in some of the most desolate, war-torn areas of the world is because islam is practical and beautiful in so many ways. if it's so barbaric and backwards, why does it continue to be the fastest-growing religion in the world? and why are more and more educated, intellectual people outside of the east accepting it?
Please note the question. I never called Islam barbaric or backwards; I asked if it was morally right to kill someone who has decided to leave that religion.
