I'm wondering though, are their any Eastern Mystical religion around? Like say Buddhism or Taoism, etc. And are they seen as "acceptable" in the sense of not being outright blaspheme as "atheism" might be seen?
Maybe you could "convert" to one of those as a public facade. That way you could still be respected by the society as being 'religious', but just of a different kind of faith?
You could be a Muslim that converted to "Buddhism" or "Taoism".
Are those options in your world?
"Taoism" is especially very close to atheism. Yet many people view it as being a respectable "religion".
I'm just offering food for thought.
So how are things like Buddhism and Taoism viewed in your country?
Thank you for suggesting that.but I dont think it will work.we do have very small percentage of Buddhism but i dont think converting to Buddhism publicly will solve the issue.its not like they dont want Atheism here.its they dont want any *ex-muslim* so converting any other religion will be the same result as atheism.its far more complicated then that.there are a few or more people who tried to share their atheism in our media or book stores and they all end up kicked out of the country.and i am not letting that happen to me.Nothing foolish then losing my *free* education which i am working on right now.
I appreciate your thoughts and suggesting but again.This will not work
+ Thank you all for the replies and the welcoming.
