EGYPT - Egypt's push against atheism and 'non-believers'

  • 10 years ago
In Egypt a growing number of young people are identifying as atheists. On paper, Egypt protects freedom of religious beliefs, but this does not extend to those who reject organised religion altogether. Over the Summer, the government launched a campaign to actively fight atheism... But despite the risks, more and more atheists are speaking out, increasingly using the internet to express their views.
