... But does not do a thing to help the image of Saudi drivers drifting while AK-47ing...

Interesting as they have 3-4 times more road fatalities that the western countries. And i don't see any real difference between them and qatar or Oman for example.
So , this clears the myth about female drivers.

US is not atheist. 80-85% of the population believes in some sort of organized religion.

US needs the Saudi oil and Saudi Arabia needs the US protection against Iran. It is a win-win situation for both the parties.

The Irony is Saudi Arabia is an ally of the Atheists America.

I wonder what goes on in the heads of these religious devotees? Of course, it's absolutely impossible for people like me, who believe everybody should be free to believe and think in whatever they want (always provided this is not harmful to anybody else) to even remotely understand their thought processes.

Such beliefs may have had its place centuries ago, but most peoples have come to learn from the past, and societies have developed accordingly and are now reasonably liberal. But nothing's changed in places such as Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan , Pakistan and other Muslim countries, because their rulers would face losing power if they gave their peoples choices - just as it was a thousand years ago.

... as long as it is quiet so the members of their family still muslims do not suffer

Yes. Apostasy is punishable by death in most Muslim nations. But that is not preventing hundreds of thousands of Muslims from abandoning their religion every year.

It's beaten out of kids when they're young through physical harm, negligence and religious and political indoctrination (arguably the same thing) via poor parenting and public schooling.  Those kids grow up to believe the "might makes right" philosophy which supplants any notions of there being rights or freedom (for they were denied both growing up, combined with undeveloped empathy and a damaged frontal cortex), and express their childhood trauma through a desire to dominate by following the state.

Does this adequately sum it up?

... And all other things I posted in #6

When think about it again, if SA was just about keeping women from driving, but it is also the country with more Death Penalties sentences and executions in the planet, followed by Iran and the "now Democratic" Egypt, maybe they just suck.

When you think about it, keeping a woman from driving is not as bad as killing Iraqis or the Chinese sending tanks to crush a Tibetan riot. 

There's also the death penalty for muslims who give up their religion, and women can't drive in Saudi Arabia. Don't be surprised if nobody goes there for a vacation.

Many of the ultra-left wing armed rebel groups, such as the FARC and the ELN of Colombia are officially atheist.

Are there actually any atheist terrorist group in the world? or political terrorist group using atheism as a front?

Never ever talk that sort of stuff in the middle east (especially in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait.etc) or you'll never see your home country again.

What happened to human rights, freedom, and stuff like that?

The NATO and the US doesn't care about Tibet because they don't have the balls to stand up to the Chinese bullying.

That is also why no one cares about Tibet.

As long as the Americans and the West Europeans stoop before King Abdullah, the Saudis would be just fine.

As a christian I would welcome it. Why not. Too bad for some people this particular thread is about Saudi Arabia To Classify Atheists As “Terrorists”…
