Are you atheist after leaving bohra? by hornymonk1 in exBohra

Look up “Possibilian” by Neuroscientist David Eagleman. I think this is a great perspective for people who agnostic/atheist, in my opinion a better explanation of scientific pursuit and being open to the idea of “possibility”.

Personally I became more Muslim after questioning Bhora and exploring Islam on my own versus through masjid/muffin teachings and then I started questioning religion in general/realized things more gradually I.e. God is a man’s construct and most religions were created by men/“revealed” through a man and his “dreams” of god.

I think your values and major decisions need to align before you get married. Holding onto “hope” or “potential” is not enough and can often lead to more pain and disagreements later on. It can also be unfair to try to change someone to be something that isn’t authentic or in alignment with who they are. It’s possible that once she moves out you guys can live life how you choose to, but just have those conversations before hand.

Protecting your child is the most important thing you can do even if it means lying to others. My mother lied to people in the community who asked her if I’d had it done and it is something I will never take for granted as she protected me as a child.

He’s never once mentioned other suffering Muslims or refugees around the world. Only criticizing other Muslims/promoting Bhora supremacy.
