Status of religious freedom in Iran - Baha'is.
According to the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of the United States, since 1979 more than 200 Bahá'ís have been killed and 15 have disappeared and are presumed dead. The Government continued to imprison and detain Bahá'ís based on their religious beliefs.
The Government appears to adhere to a practice of keeping a small number of Bahá'ís in arbitrary detention, some at risk of execution, at any given time. There were four Bahá'ís reporte ...

| | | | | Freedom: Encyclopedia II - Index of Economic Freedom - Criticism Some economists and commentators have criticized the Index on several grounds—asking, for instance, if Canada's slightly higher income tax rates make it a less economically free country than the United States. Critics of the index's methodology most commonly take issue with its equation of regressive taxation, low tax rates generally, and weak worker protection regulations with economic freedom. Some critics go further, saying that the index judges countries against a specious list of 'ideal' economic and fiscal policies, which refl ...

| | | | | Freedom: Encyclopedia II - Freedom Party Harry Turtledove - Freedom at War
Freedom Party Harry Turtledove - Commander-in-chief Featherston.
Unlike most other modern leaders, Featherston preferred to lead from the front, or at a spot not too far away. He spent much of his time near the First Richmond Howitzers, his army alma-mater from the First World War, and even yanked the lanyard of the guns a few times. He also enjoyed firing at US airplanes the new automatic rifle Confederate soldiers used - a reckless feat that greatly alarmed his bodyguards. The propaganda value of being at the f ...

| | | | | Freedom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Sudan - Status of religious freedom The Constitution provides for freedom of religion; however, the Government severely restricted this right in practice. The Government treats Islam as the state religion and has declared that it must inspire the country's laws, institutions, and policies. The Constitution states that "Sharia (Islamic law) and custom are the sources of legislation."
Religious organizations and churches are subject to the same restrictions placed on nonreligious corporations. Religious groups, like all other organizations, must be registered in order to ...

In June 2001, Aladin Omer Agabani Mohammed, a Khartoum resident, was arrested for converting from Islam to Christianity and detained incommunicado for 3 months; he reportedly was tortured. In September 2001, he was released on medical grounds, but was required to report daily to the ...

| | | | | | Freedom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Status of religious freedom Government in general supports Islamic religious establishment and it is the official policy to "infuse Islamic values" into the administration of the country.
In May 2001, the government decided not to approve the Falun Gong Preparatory Committee’s application to register as a legal organization. This action is believed to be more related to the governments wish to improve relations with China rather then an attempt to undermine the Falun Gong in favour of Islam. It should be noted that the govern ...
