Jail? Public whipping? Stoning? Deporation? Nobody will tell me, and I can't find it on the web!

for all the people who saying there is no penalty...stop lying. I didnt ask if there was a penalty, I asked what the penalty is. It is illegal to own a Bible in Saudi Arabia. That is an undeniable fact. Satan uses lies to disguise his agenda. Don't be like Satan

Not in Saudi Arabia, it is more diverse in Religion then the US http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Arabia#Education
The foreign population includes approximately 2 million Yemenites, 1.5 million Indians, 1 million Bangladeshis, nearly 900,000 Pakistanis, 800,000 Egyptians, 800,000 Filipinos, 250,000 Palestinians, 150,000 Lebanese, 130,000 Sri Lankans, 40,000 Eritreans, and 36,000 Americans. Comprehensive statistics for the denominations of foreigners are not available,
but they include Muslims from the various branches and schools of Islam, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, and Jews. For example, the Embassy of the Philippines reports that over 90 percent of the Filipino community is Christian. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops estimates there are well over 500,000 Catholics in the country, and perhaps as many as 1 million. There is no information regarding the number of atheists in the country.

I have a friend who is a muslim convert to christianity named Mohammed Nurzayee. He was a former Afghan solider and he blew his right leg off in a mine accident. I talk with him frequently about politics and religion and he could not return to afghanistan now because they would try and kill him! hes a christian arab man who loves Jesus and accepted him as his personal savior. It's amazing to be around him because he loves america and has helped me to get over some stereotypes about middle eastern people and their hatred of the united states.

Christianity is outlawed in Saudi Arabia, If you are caught preaching openly you can be killed for that, The same if Afghanistan, Pakistan.
And they call us intolerant?

You mean the Christian/Jewish version of the Bible right? The Qu'ran is also based on the Old Testament legends and it is not illegal there . . . anyway I have no idea.
