Hardline Saudi clerics have called on the government to ban women from appearing on television and to prohibit their images in print media, which they called a sign of growing "deviant thought."
Fundamentalist christianists in the US have said similar things about gay people. So, I wonder: How come the Saudi clerics are “hardline”, but similar christianist ones in the US are simply ”conservative”? Can the mainstream media really not see how similar the two are?
