My god, how brutal, that is awful. I'm not surprised it put you off religion. If the best reason they can give you is "we'll hurt you if you don't do it" then that's a giveaway that it's nonsense.

And I used to live in KSA, when my parents used to take me to Mekkah were Muhammd is buried and Islam was originated from. I used to observe how ignorant people as Muslims go around in circles and worship a huge cubic deity as 'Al Kabba'. TO me its a pagan act of worship. Just like in Hinduism. Rationally speaking, if God was a spiritual being as it is told in Islam and he is unseen, up in the clouds, hidden from us. Then why are we acting as morons and worshiping a cubic structural pagan deity and kissing a black stone placed at the corner. Why don't we direct out prayers to the heaven instead? till this day not a single Muslim have the answer for this question.
