Subject: RE: BS: U.S. Law Banning Religous Mail
McGrath, thanks for reminding us that Islamic countries also exist in the far East and in Africa. In many of them too, laws selectively support one particular faith.

The particular incident leading to this thread seems like an invention to me: "Bulk quantities of religious material contrary to the Islamic faith. Items for personal use...are permissible" seems to me to cover a father sending his daughter or son a bible and some additional material. Some overly zealous Christians misrepresent the facts.
