Is "ridda" possible in Tunisian law? I doubt it.
@Tarek: I think apostasy and religious conversion are not allowed in Tunisia, I don't really know if there're any laws that deal with this issue. Yet I read an article a year ago I think and it talks about some tunisian young men who were concverted to Christianity ( I had to check that article).What I know that proselytism is not allowed in Tunisia but you know our history when it comes to religious liberty, the three monotheistic religions co-existed peacefully in Tunisia. Thank you anyway for bringing up such an interesting issue which needs more research I guess.
@Tarek: this is the article I told you about though it didn't talk about Tunisia's law with regard to apostasy.

thanks Hannibal!
I personally see this as nothing more than an identity crisis (yet another one shall I say!). The same is happening with Algerian Kabiles who use it as a form of contestation of societal segregation.
Anyway, I think it's one of those banned-but-tolerated-subject-to-discretion kind of issues. Which is very typical of Tunisia isn't it? :)
Well, why not ?
I don't see any problem with the fact tunisians create a christian series...
Liberty of faith is stated in the country's constitution... So...
@Xander: who said the opposite? ;P
Eux en tout cas, il ne risque pas de finir en prison . Au contraire, ils vont certainement êtres choiés et protégés . Sinon gare à l'oncle sam qui veille au grain et qui appuie l'entreprise de sape contre l'islam .
