A Malaysian woman held for months in an Islamic rehabilitation centre says she was subjected to mental torture for insisting her religion is Hinduism.

Revathi Massosai, the name by which she wants to be known, says she was forced to eat beef despite being a Hindu.

Miss Massosai was seized by the Islamic authorities in January when she went to court to ask that she be registered as a Hindu rather than a Muslim

Here is a good illustration of what the world could expect if Islam were ever to gain ascendancy. The great majority of non-muslim islamist apologists would not survive.

Expect that and a lot worse.

In the meantime, Miss Revathi and her daughter have been placed in the custody of her Muslim parents.

The entire ideology is a scourge. These are not middle eastern/ arabic values 'tainting islam' this is the other side of the planet oozing the same sickness.

I was looking up the MyKad smart card used to identify people in Malaysia and found this:

Information on race and religion is included in the MyKad and these are stored on the chip. However, if the stated religion is Islam, the word 'ISLAM' would be printed on the card.

So if you're not a Muslim, anyone can demand your ID and immediately see this.

This sounds a lot more like the “mark of the beast” scenario than most conspiracy theories. You either bear the mark ISLAM, or you will be punished.
