Hi ! Im not an atheist ... yet
Reply #180 - August 15, 2013, 10:06 PM

No no, I just got a comment. It's not deleted.
Here's a copy:
Murtad. It's a word every Muslim says with disgust and superiority. Like it is a poison on the mouth. But I am not a Muslim. Not a catholic. Not a Jew, Hindu or Buddhist. I am human. I was born and raised in a Muslim family where praying five times a day was a must, yet I did not feel that all powering connection to god. I did not feel the love. I felt the hostility and injustice of being a women. I felt the silent cries for help to god, wishing I was not myself. I saw myself as a withered and damned being, like I was set up for the horrid life that god gave me. Is that god's mercy? Is that god's love? No, no it isn't. I am a feminist. I am proud to say that women are of a hundred percent equal to men. And that's why I left Islam. I left Islam because it self contradicts, while it says one thing, it breaks it's own words with another. It promises heaven to men, yet shy in compromise for women. It makes women an object for men's pleasure, constricts them from the freedoms of life, while still saying that we are deficit to men. That we are half intelligent, half believing and half their worth in a court. That is not equality, that is not freedom. And that is not god. So today, I officially renounce my religion. I still believe in god. I believe god is kinder than this religion. That's my story. I hope that this encourages human beings alike to follow their hearts, and not be condemned by injustice. Catch you on the flip side mothafuckers.

Sincerely
S.A.A

Just like Johnny Flynn said, the breath I've taken and the one I must to go on.

Honestly even as a child I always wondered why a woman would follow these religions.

`But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'

I wish I was that eloquent...and I'm a 37 year old university graduate! The bolded part is epic though.

Thanks xodarap, I am known for my sassy exits.

Well most of them would be killed if they don't. They don't have the political, educational of financial freedoms to leave.

Ugh so one guy is telling me I am misinformed , he was basically speechless after this reply:
You call the Quran misinforming than?
It very clearly says:
"Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and forsake them in beds apart, and beat them." Quran 4:34, "Women," Dawood, p. 83

"A male shall inherit twice as much as a female." Quran 4:11, "Women," Dawood, p. 77

"Call in two male witnesses from among you, but if two men cannot be found, then one man and two women whom you judge fit to act as witnesses..." Quran 2:282, "The Cow," Dawood, p. 47

"Women shall with justice have rights similar to those exercised against them, although men have a status above women." Quran 2:228, Dawood, p. 35

Must be uncomfortable for the religious when other people know what their religion teaches. Poor dears.

Like everything else in Islam, you have taken those verses and ahadith out of context.

That's how dawah works right?
