This statement is NOT true. NO religious freedom would be the Taliban. They have Churches and Christians in the UAE don't they?
Apparently the author feels that getting sent to prison for speaking the name of Jesus Christ to a Muslim means there is no freedom of religion. You have a different view.
Maybe we've covered this particular aspect of the article enough now, hopefully.

Not quite true, ET.
An essential tenet of the Christian faith is evangelism (the spreading of the word of Christ). While Christians are not actively persecuted simply for holding to their beliefs, they would be subject to criminal prosecution for fully practicing their religion in the UAE. In short; they're not free to practice their religion in public.
