I Want People To Emphasize Life Before

My Friend, The Dutch Filmmaker Theo Van Gogh, Was Murdered In 2004 For Having Been Insufficiently Reverent Toward Islam.

My Brother Thinks It Is Very, Very Bad That I Left Islam. My Half-sister Wants To Convert Me Back; I Want To Convert Her To Western Values. My Mum Is Terrified That When I Die, And We All Go To God, I Will Be Burned.

The Demand That Islam Makes Of Women Is To Not Attract Attention To Yourself, And If You Are In A Secular Society, That Attire Does Exactly That, And It Is A Political Symbol, No Longer Religious.

I Want People To Emphasize Life Before Death As Opposed To Life After Death.

I Was A Muslim Once, Remember, And It Was When I Was Most Devout That I Was Most Full Of Hate.
