Religious Freedom?

I was reading an interesting article today on the BBC News website about religious freedom in Dubai. The government there over the past 50+ years have made an effort to ensure that all the major world religions - Christian, Seikhism, Hindu - have places where their followers can meet and worship in peace. Whilst this is commendable is this really freedom? The worshipper a meet in walled compounds with no external evidence of their faith, and any attempt to prostelytize is met with arrest and deportation. For a Christian in light of the commission given by Jesus and our necessary role in the mission of God surely this is not freedom but imprisonment?
