Yemen is predominantly Muslim, but there are small groups of Christians, Jews, and Hindus.

Syria: Sunni Muslim 74%, Alawite, Druze, and other Muslim sects 16%, Christian (various sects) 10%, Jewish (tiny communities in Damascus, Al Qamishli, and Aleppo)

Saudi Arabia is 100% Muslim.

Pakistan: Muslim 97% (Sunni 77%, Shi'a 20%), Christian, Hindu, and other 3%

Two more countries that you didn't ask for:

USA: Protestant 56%, Roman Catholic 28%, Jewish 2%, other 4%, none 10% (1989)

Israel: Jewish 80.1%, Muslim 14.6% (mostly Sunni Muslim), Christian 2.1%, other 3.2% (1996 est.)

Do you see a pattern here?

Christian countries have a small presence of non-Christian religions, the reverse is true for non-Christian countries.

Do you think that the figures on the US and Israel indicate religious persecution and intolerance as well?

"I been waiting years for an explanation."

What? All this intellect and you have yet to figure out that the Saudis are by and large arrogant, intolerant a$$holes? You can also see that of all the countries you listed, they are the only ones 100% Muslim.

"Take your prozac and take your time."

I see that you are cut from the same cloth.

Beautiful "cut and paste" job, my kindergarten kids used to do that well too.

You sort of forgot the question, though.
I wondered if there were any churches in any of those places where Christians may worship and stay alive.

You studiously answered a question I didn't ask.
But why am I not surprised?

And you specially avoided the Thanksgiving celebration report in Saudi Arabia. No explanation whatsoever? From such a tolerant country?

Good luck at your sand-maggot sites.
