Testimony of Leaving Islam
First of all, I am so liberated and so happy that I have left such a backward, cruel and ridiculous religion. I will now offer the readers reasons why I left this dictatorial religion of Muhammad:
- Praying 5 times a day: Are you freaking kidding me?! Who has the time to do such an overwhelming task?! What ever happened to enjoying the beauty of this world and smelling the fresh air? Praying 5 times a day sucks the beauty out of this life and wastes your time. Praying has never even worked for me nor does it make sense that God actually responds to the millions of prayers.
- Disbelievers: Allah is sure one horrible, angry bastard! There are many nice disbelievers, they don't deserve hell! No one deserves hell, what kind of a sick twisted entity Allah is!!
- Hellfire: Apart from disbelievers, Allah also threatens Muslims with hellfire if they don't follow his guidelines. I guess Muslims only follow Islam out of fear!
- Music: Now that alone should make you think, why would music be forbidden?! I cannot stop listening to Dean Martin or these good oldies music. Allah is surely stupid! Music is actually found to be effective not destructive, if done in a moderate manner of course.
- The Arts: This just gets better and better, no arts!! How can any Muslim still follow such a religion which frowns upon the Arts? That is simply ridiculous and I should not explain my point any further. God is one jealous guy!
- Television: Picture makers are sinners in Islam, now that is preposterous! Allah is Saddam Hussein, he wants to suck all kind pleasure even when it is harmless.
- Alcohol: Well, yes, alcohol is bad, but it's not bad when it's consumed in moderation. Actually, it has health benefits. Islam is not even close to a moderate religion!
- Pork: How can pork be forbidden?! A lot of people consume pork and they are not sick nor have they died..
- Shaking hands with women: Islam forbids that, unbelievable! Is shaking hands with women going to lead to intercourse?! God is such a pervert!
- Dating: How could dating be considered a sin?! Dating doesn't have to involve sex or inappropriate behavior.
- Dogs: Allah also have problems with dogs, you can't have dogs as pets. How could God hate dogs?! They are so adorable!
- Masturbation: Islam does not allow masturbation, now God has just crossed the line, what does he care whether I touch my body or not! Come to think of it, it is creepy that he is watching me masturbate.
- Women: I don't intend to disrespect Muslim women nor do I claim that they are being oppressed (at least in some areas). But why the hell does God have to force them to put a veil on their faces?! So if women put a veil on their face, that will not make men horny?! Allah, what goes on in your head?! Leave women alone!!
- Shariah: Shariah is the complete opposite of a democracy. Its punishments are inhumane and cruel. It is not a funny matter!
- Beards and facial appearance: Now, I don't mean to judge anyone with beards, but Muslims with beards is not a good image to represent Islam, it is very unattractive. I don't know why God would want this done to men.
- Homosexuals: Hmmmm, I honestly don't see the issue with homosexuals, they are super clean, super organized and adore fashion. They are the nicest people I've encountered and I don't think putting them in hell would be a kind thing to do!
- Hell/Heaven: This is worst part of Islam. I don't know how Muslim explain this to Non Muslims. 72 virgins awaiting me in heaven, yea, I wish!
- Science: While I haven't yet researched the claims of Quran's scientific miracles, I don't think Islam is scientific. It seems as if Islam believes God is behind every single thing which raises this question: Is God overly complex? God may exist, but not the God of the Abrahamic religion.
- Free Will: Islam and free will don't run too well despite the fact that Allah say free will exist. Do Muslims really have free will?!
While some of these reasons may seem stupid to the reader or funny, but these reasons should pose a problem to Muslims since Islam is after all, not only a dictatorial religion but it is also extremely silly to even bother with in the first place.
These reasons are not the only reasons why I have a problem with Islam. There are thousands more similar to these!
As for me, I am currently an agnostic and next step is to find out whether or not God exists!
Thank you!
