He recalled that while he was in Lima, he made the sign of the cross before every game and wore a rosary around his neck. Now in Saudi Arabia, he said, I cant do it. I do it before heading out to the field, in the locker room. If I sign myself, theyll kill me or stone me, Costas said.

Ping!
Dominant religion? Understatement of the year.
I think I’d rather scrub toilets for minimum wage in the U.S. than to work for large money in Saudi Arabia.
Freedom isn’t free.
A country so insecure of it’s own faith; that even something as simple as acknowledging God in another faith - scares them.
If I were Allah, I’d smack them for being degenerate idiots. But, once you started - could you force yourself to stop?
They are insecure, because the one they call Allah is insecure.
Dominant? How about ONLY?
Juan shoots, Jesus saves!
Our government (both parties) insist Saudis are our allies; as someone who watched the WTC burn from NJ, I don’t believe them.
If you would prefer to scrub toilets, you would have to stay here, the heathens crap in holes in the floor. That was the second worst thing about my stay there.
If they were virtue police they would have to assassinate all the Imans and mullahs and those complaining about Christ image..let sa and iramn have at it...

Neither do I.
With “friends” like that, who needs enemies?

LOL!!
But now you have my curiosity up.
What was the FIRST worst thing about your stay there?
Don’t buy the story that muslims honor Issa. They do not. He is a prophet to them, but not the Son of God. You can see here how He is treated by muslims. Would any other prophet picture get this response? I think not.
Sounds like most liberals when they see or hear a Christian.
Maybe he should tattoo Mohammed on the other arm...
There were some toilets like that in some of the markets in Moscow, apparently muslims like to squat like that.
