Converting from islam any help?

[Ilovemyself]

Hi there!
I'm sick and tired of Islam. It's so evil & mean towards non believers also unfair to women. My parents are punjabi pakistani's by their parents, they pray 5 times a day, fast. But they ask me to pray and I say that I'm still learning. I just want to get out of this trash whole religion, Christianity isn't any different but at least Jesus Christ didn't have sex with an 6 year old when he was 55 like mohammed did. I'm still young so i can't move out. I just want some help & advice, thanks.

Just hang on in there and hopefully being a member of our little community will give you some strength. Luckily you live in a country where being non-religious is a perfectly normal and socially acceptable state of affairs

Hi!

Don't go against your parents. You will be an adult before you know it and will be able to follow your reason then. Any pushing back now will only cause problems you are in no position to avoid. I know it sucks, but just be patient.

Yes that's lucky, thanks, I am lucky to be living in a non religious country x

Hopefuly, I agree it's going to be hard. I'll try to be patient.

Welcome to AF!

I unfortunately have no advice to give, but I concur with the Captain. Wait until you're not dependent on your parents.

I know a few muslims who wouldn't qualify as the muslim muslim by other muslims, if you know what i mean. One of them basically ignores everything the religion says, doesn't read the qur'an and has his own opinions (often contradicting islam) about things like sex, marriage, homosexuality etc. and he doesn't always realize how contradicting it is because he hasn't read the qur'an for a long time. So if you've realized at this point that you don't like the religion, you could do that and then you'll only be a muslim "by name". But of course in all cases their parents have no idea that they aren't devout, and I completely agree that you want to keep it on the down low until you can move out, but you can make nonmuslim friends so you don't always have to keep up the act.

Welcome!

I don't blame you for leaving Islam, I've been trying to read the Koran and at 8 pages in... yeah, not regretting never being brought up with it. Others have given you some good advice. Try not to piss off your parents right now, and stick around here to vent and learn. :3

Don't be mislead by any of these pious xtian assholes you see around here. Given a chance they would be as bloody a bunch of bastards as the muslims you seek to flee.

Free yourself from superstition in total. You'll be better off.

Welcome.

Don't become an atheist whatever you do. Have a read of this before leaving Islam.



Generally I'd recommend people to stick with their cultural set-up, as long as they have the right idea.
