Testimony of Leaving Islam
I have never felt comfortable being a Muslim as long as memory serves me. Both my parents and all of my siblings are Muslims. I have had to hide my true feelings for as long as I can remember. None of us dare to expose our inner truth to anyone, and even as young as 5, I knew better than to blab about my disbelief. I did not look forward to the obligatory religious classes that every Muslim child has to go through. Even now, none of my Muslim brothers and sisters know of my apostasy; and thank god I am thousands of miles away from them.
It was only after I finally consciously told myself that I no longer believe in a violent fanatical religion that is Islam, that I became a tolerant, compassionate and loving individual. It is amazing that once I removed my fear of this god Allah, I became a humanitarian. I am less judgmental towards others provided they're not violent, maniacal, sadists - and taking so much joy in beheading others to further their causes.
I wonder what my family would really think if one day I told them the truth? Listening to my sister talking on the phone, going on and on about how wonderful it is to be a Muslim, is getting on my nerves. Also to hear her talk about how awful the Israelis are to the Palestinians is getting rather old as this is the same old same old complaints nearly all Muslims will resort to.
I hope what happened in the London train bombings will alert and finally open the eyes of the British citizens who are allowing too many Muslims migrating to their country. If Britain is not careful it would soon be a hotbed of terrorist camps. Muslims keep repeating the mantra: "Islam is a religion of peace". It is anything but peace.
