Family stuff :(
#11
RE: Family stuff :(
Ooh. You also need to take into account what would happen in your community if other people found out. In America, the worst that could happen is some yokel idiot gives you a hard time. I don't pretend to know what the climate is like in Egypt, but if you guys' recent shenaniganery is any metric, I might keep it quiet. I know that sucks, but you have to be careful. Better to be a free atheist in the closet than an open one in jail or worse.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
