I'm glad this man was freed, but what does it stay about what has been accomplished in Afghanistan?

KABUL, Afghanistan - An Afghan man who had faced the death penalty for converting from Islam to Christianity has been released from prison after the case was dropped, the justice minister said Tuesday... Deputy Attorney General Mohammed Eshak Aloko told the AP that prosecutors had issued a letter calling for Rahman's release because "he was mentally unfit to stand trial." He also said he did not know where he was being held... Hours earlier, hundreds of clerics, students and others chanting "Death to Christians!" marched through the northern Afghan Mazar-i-Sharif to protest the court's decision Sunday to dismiss the case... Several Muslim clerics have threatened to incite Afghans to kill Rahman if he is freed, saying that he is clearly guilty of apostasy and deserves to die.

What happens to the next Christian when the world isn't paying attention? Will he/she be killed just for being a Christian? I'm seriously confused. I know we have made some progress compared to the Taliban, but if this is where their law is headed, how much better will it be down the road?

Is there any hope Christians and Muslims can ever get along? I know, I know... there are moderates on both sides and hopefully they are the majority and will prevail, but it's disheartening to know something like this happens.

Throw stones my way if you want but heck, when are the Muslim moderates going to wake-up and bring Islam fundamentalists from the 13th century closer to the 21st? Aren't we (the western world and moderates Muslims) being too appeasing of these fanatics?
