How careful do you need to be in cyberspace?
Can I post a Bible verse on my wall or will they hack my head off.
I think my privacy settings are OK and I won't be adding any students.
Oh yeah. And I do have a blog for Christian evangelism which I like to update - but hey - this is cyberspace, isn't it? |

Man! You are heading for trouble just asking that question!
It's time for me to buy life insurance on a not-to-be-identified poster on Dave's Saudi board! |

Is it lawful to download mp3 sermons from my church in the UK when I am accessing the web from KSA.
This may sound like a stupid question but ... |

You can download anything that isn't blocked.

It's fun to try to go round the Saudi censors! |

OK, I am a bit feared up about public executions and living in a theocracy.
I suppose you've "been there, done that and got the t-shirt"  |

Nope! But, the wife's got an "If you can't stand the Heat, get out of the Kingdom" full-length apron. Does that count?
It's just one of the many, many things that we exported out before recruiters moved in! |

First off, the Saudi government doesn't execute Westerners. Secondly, if there are any pages you want me to check are blocked feel free to message me and I will check.
In general, as long as you aren't playing the role of missionary you are welcome to practice your religion here. You're allowed to bring a person bible, you can meet with other Christians in your residence and do whatever.
I'm confident the blog would not be an issue, and a lot worse things than Christian mp3s are being downloaded all the time, and little to nothing is ever done about it. |
