I think you've got some false equivalency going on here.

If I give the presentation of being rational and objective, might it have anything at all to do with my efforts to focus on ideas, and to even give credit to some ideas in a belief system that I have left behind? /1
You couch your remarks as if to give my approach a somewhat sinister connotation.

Would you prefer I use profanity or attack people in ad-hom fashion, so it would be easier for Ahmadi Muslims to discredit anything I have to say? /2
Yes, all human beings have bias.

Ahmadis present the "True Islam" campaign as if impartial and objective. That presentation has bias too. So why the double standard in how you view me and what I write? Did I come out and state that I'm the final authority? That anyone is? /3
I believe converting out of one's inherited paradigm demonstrates more objectivity than staying with it.

Speaking of which, I also confer the same admiration for breaking free of indoctrination to converts INTO Ahmadiyya Islam. See example, below. /4

This is not to say that being born into the 'One True Faith' disqualifies a person from being sincere or having something valuable, insightful and intelligent to say.

Perhaps you can give me a specific example. Otherwise, I'm also responding in generalities; probably not clear.
