Dear queser,
If I may say so, your definition of islam and muslim is incorrect because it is impractical ie it does not and cannot work. As I understand it, your definition requires a person to know islam in its totality and without fault. This is the only way one could not be expected to change one's mind ever about islam. According to traditional view even children that are just born are said to be muslims. Can you tell me what do they know about Islam? Dear friend think about what you are actually saying ie that one cannot be a muslim unless one understood islam perfectly, how do you know what is perfect islam and how do you know that you know it totally and it has no faults whatsoever? Can you yourself prove yourself that kind of a muslim? In my view it is impossible for any such person to exist who could prove oneself a perfect muslim as per your definition, that is because none can know islam perfectly and faultfree. Learning takes time and only if you make an effort yet one can never be sure if one knows all aspecs of something or not and perfectly or not. Only if one could know islam completley and faultlessly that one could be sure that islam is true and that one is a perfect muslim. What is required of a person to be a muslim is simply accept a set of dogmas called creed and that is it. According to muslims we were born amongst, we were muslims but as we changed our minds after realising islam through understanding, we turned our backs on islam. I found islam a false religion as well as dangerous for humanity. I have proven that beyond any doubt in my posts. So far you have failed to filfil your own definition, so I take it that you too are not a muslim as per your own defintion of a muslim. So my friend start thinking as to what you say you believe. If there cannot be such muslims as per your definition then you are right that there cannot be any ex-muslims either, for such islam ie perfect and faultfree does not exist unless you could prove that it does. Coming to invisibility of apostates, do you know what happens to the rest of the family when one of its members steps outside the social norm? For example, honour killings do not stop at killing the girls but the rest of the family is also boycotted by the rest of relatives and friends ie the consequential effects are wider. Regards and all the best. |

And when was anyone ever executed in public for killing an apostate in an un-Islamic manner? Yes, executed in public. This seems like the "No True Scotsman" fallacy. |
