Is there a law being passed in Iran that sentances men who convert to Christianity to death??

Quote:Articles 225-8 of the new code bluntly states that punishment for a male apostate is ‘death’ and for a female it is life imprisonment - unless she re-cants. In a similar way that Nazis argued over the definition of a Jew, so this code has special clauses for ‘parental’ and ‘innate’ apostates. The former have three days to recant; the latter none. Such details do nothing to hide the fundamental injustice of a law that seeks to ferociously punish its citizens for choosing their own religion.

Is that fact or not?
Ya, I think this is true.

Its not law yet though to the best of my knowledge.
