Im not really sure what you mean by this?
1) How has your journey as a Muslim been so far?

2) How has your experience been among Muslims? Welcoming? Disappointing?

3) What were your O/A levels results? :tongue:

Do you think that, under an Islamic government, people who ridicule Islam should be punished (or even exectued)?

I'm only asking this because some muslims on this forum do think that.

7 pillars of atheism:
1) Belief in no God
2) Evolution is the truth
3) Intellect is mandatory
4) Freedom should be valued
5) Logic & reasoning is critical
6) Science DUH
7) Religion is for the "lonely and depressed"

:tongue:

I don't know the ruling in Islamic Jurisprudence on such an issue to comment.

At least you tried. You'll be an atheist yet.

1) No belief in a god, not belief in no god. An important distinction.
3) Some people are incapable of intellect, making it mandatory would impinge on the freedom to be wrong/stupid.
7) Religion is not 'for' any one stereotypical person. There are many possible reasons why one may opt for (or remain in, as the case is for most people) a religion and they don't boil down to being 'lonely and depressed'.

Keep these in mind and you'll be on the road to apostasy in no time.


Hmmm I'd rather not but got it. :cool:

After 6 months I decided to tell my brother and my sisters. And Alhamdulillah they were ok with it. And said that if your happy then im happy. However I do feel that in private they do hold there own reservations. However I didnt tell my father till some time after. He didnt reach well and wasnt happy at all. And things got quite bad with arguments, confrontations etc. But after a while his anger went. And were at a point now where we dont argue - we just sort of tip toe round the subject - and just let each other do our thing. Which Alhamdulillah is an improvement from what it was. As for my mother she passed away whilst I was young.
Hey, what was the strongest, most compelling argument for Islam?

I dont think the argument for Islam is based on a single Narrative. But on multiple varying arguments that all come together to support each other.
