Do you see what I see?
CHURCH PEWS with CROSSES on them.
Maybe Iran's government isn't as bad as some like to claim after all! But then again I could be mistaken and this could be some kind of symbol of the Islam religion..

There are some Christians churches in Iran, but Iran is an officially Islamic state. A dress code is strictly enforced and Islamic law is enforced.
Basically it's what Republicans want the US to be like for Christianity.

That has to be doctored, or it's just propaganda. Iran is considered the 3rd worst persecutor of Christians (behind the unbelievably cruel North Korea and completely intolerant Saudis, and 9 spots higher than even China on the list of the worst) where Christians have to sneak to meet.

I doubt it very much since Iran is an muslim nation, and in most muslim nations the Koran serves as their state law just as the Constitution is our national law.

There is freedom of religion in Iran just as much as there is in the U.S. In the U.S., you have freedom of religion as long as you are Christian, but if you try practicing a non-Christian religion, the government will stop you. Don't believe me? What if your religion involves one man with multiple wives? What if your religion accepts 12 year olds as adults? What if your religion teaches suicide or assisted suicide? What if your religion involves the enforced removal of the clitoris? See what I mean?

Sure, but if I tried to get people interested in opening a Buddhist temple, how would the authorities respond?
