Did you know that all these Abrahamic trilogy stories came from various pagan sources. And guess what else? It was an Egyptian Pharoah who invented monotheism, Akhenaten. When his son Tutankhamun became Pharoah, he reinstated polytheism and banished the monotheists.
They’re all very interesting stories that are fun to learn about. But it doesn’t make sense to live your life today based on the morality codes of ancient men. Our ability to learn and progress is humanity’s greatest strength.
The History of Religions course I took changed my life because I learned real, historical facts-not divine stories. And once the divinity is removed, you realize it’s all just very human. And it all finally makes sense.

Heres a free course from Harvard:

I swear some ppl would love for Christianity to be as vicious today as it was hundreds of years ago just so their whataboutism can have some validity

I don’t believe in any religions. It is objectively obvious to anyone w eyeballs that Islam is the worst on many levels today
If you are comfortable calling out the sexism and homophobia in Christianity but not in Islam, you are a hypocrite and a bigot

Islam’s sexism and homophobia is sanctioned by laws that are applied to millions of ppl today. The same is not true for Christianity
If you don’t care to speak up for ppl persecuted by Islam-minority groups, women, LGBT- then you don’t care about those ppl

It’s that simple

Thread On Muslim Reformers

I get asked about this so often, Im going to make a thread to share going fwd. There is a general disagreement w ppl like me and @aliamjadrizvi believing it is possible and ppl like @ArminNavabi and @SarahTheHaider who believe it is not

We won't know who wins this debate as it wont be settled in our lifetimes, but I see enough evidence to give me hope. I think Muslims can reach the point that most Christians and Jews are at-that is having a tenuous connection to their religion without practicing it literally

What gives me this impression is that I've lived in Muslim majority countries and attended and taught in Islamic schools and in general-ppl want to be free. If Muslims are given the option between Sharia and freedom, they will overwhelmingly choose freedom.

Im so angry I want to scream, not just for myself and everyone I love, but I can’t shake the image of ppl getting their doors welded shut, mothers being dragged out of their homes in front of their children, doctors and nurses crying w frustration and fear

Instead of detaining the Dr who discovered this and forcing him to sign an ‘apology for spreading misinformation’ they could have been controlling this and saving lives. Dr Li is a hero. He has inspired ppl who were forced into silence to now bravely speak up against their govt.
The parallels w Iran are uncanny. Complete and utter disregard for the lives of their citizens. And I hope a revolution will be imminent there too. Because no matter how brutal a regime is, eventually ppl get to the point where they don’t care. They’d rather die on their feet.
