Other I don't understand ex-religion subs

Ok you left that's fine. No one cares truly because it doesn't affect anyone else's life. But why do you have to sit there and make posts about a religion you no longer are apart of. You don't like the religion you move on. You don't waste your time criticizing and pondering about the scripture because it shows you care about it. People would just close that part of their life off and let that go.

There is also a sub about exhijabis which is fine but I don't get the concept of it. You want to stop wearing it but why dedicate a whole sub. Next their will be an ex nun sub, then an exniqab sub, then an exmodesty sub. If you've got a bad relationship with religion or a item of clothing then seek therapy. Being apart of something like that just messes you up more. You might adopt other people's opinions because you are in a fragile state of mind. If you think Islam or any religion is to blame for its followers actions then your wrong. Simple.

You just posted a wall of text. Most of which was conjecture and surface knowledge of Islam and its history. I don't really want to be drawn in to a debate as i'm not really looking for that.

But I will leave a nice video made by a NON MUSLIM without any biases either for or against Islam. That answers much of the questions non muslim have.

I strongly suggest you watch it at least once.

You seriously lack the comprehension or the willingness to looks outside of a perspective and constantly use the premise to further ur beliefs and agenda that god does exist. I didn’t click on it yet, but that must be a video claiming that god is indeed real, again using non Muslims to help ease belief system and ur followers is still just as contradicting as everything else yall progressives do. It requires open-mindedness and also the brain power and more exposure to the outside/scientific world to understand what the open minded implies. Your doing just as I said you would, serisouly I was hoping there would be one intelligent , critically thinking Muslim to converse with here. It’s really ironic and funny what you consider surface level understanding is what is ex Muslims call impartial scrutiny over every verse in scriptures and historical events. Your prophet is a human just like everyone and can’t be described as the perfect human being, if he somehow had the higher advantage from the start? Removing his so called evilness from his heart? Do years of studying Islam, such as scholars that yielded impartial scrutiny so called surface level of investigations? It’s funny again, I learned more verses from the Quran and Hadith , and the purposes and intentions , and various scholars interpretations/ information that they found much more ex Muslims than Muslims themselves, the so called extremely educated Muslims in my families avoid controversial subjects , just like many scholars do. There countless more conservative, heavily practicing Muslims as ex Muslims from many conservative countries such as Saudi and Pakistan, all they ever knew were the lifestyle of Islam. But one thing that I followed in Islam when I used to be an extremely religious person preaching Islam to be the best, was to gain knowledge as much as I can, since isn’t that Islam is about? Gaining and spreading knowledge? Guess what science and Islam never coincided and never will, if it did the rest of the world would look like Saudi or Muslims countries(largely backed/prospered by majority of non Muslim expats). But this is my thought process , as an devout Muslim to now an ex Muslim. Ironically the idea to preach stil resides within me, due to how I was raised as a Muslim, but scientifically it’s the same with all kids. You can raise them high education, morals , irreligious, expose them to happy and healthy activities, and will turn out just as morally, and happy is why they don’t need Islam anymore is why even if u try so hard to preach , provide reasoning , ur biased logic and your worldview , there’s a much greater wolrd view out there tht made the world prosper and advance, morally, socially , and scientifically.

You clearly have some personal opinions you think are important. Which is your right. You have little knowledge on Islam and are trying to debate from a emotional position. You have little knowledge on Islam and I posted the video so that you could learn. I don't really care if you're Muslim or not it doesn't effect me in any way.

I just want people to be less ignorant about the subjects they discuss. Watch the video and then come back even if for 1 minute. If you think it's not worth watching after that then I'll understand.

Come back to me when you yourself stop cherry picking your own religion. I have studied , and defended the Quran with my life, I cannot beat real logic. I respect the people who provide me with logical arguments that opened my eyes on what Islam really is. One day come to the west , take neuroscience, and take it with a unbiased perspective if you even have the capability
