A Pakistani Christian has been arrested because he sent blasphemous text messages to Muslims from his mobile phone.
"He says he did this as he was upset with attacks on churches in the country. ... Blasphemy can carry the death sentence in Pakistan although no-one has ever been executed for the crime".

There you have the dangers of mixing religion and government! Not exactly free speech (or free texting), is it?

Unfortunatelty some muslims countries such as Pakistan are very intolerant to other faiths...they tend not to have any respect for the the minority religions,but i think the governments within these countries need to do a whole lot more to protect the these faiths such as the Christian community in this case.
