I understand. I haven't officially left the Islamic faith yet, but I'm thinking seriously. It's hard, to take such a big step. Religion is the most binding thing I can think of. But good for you for following your own beliefs.

*hugs*

If the decision is hard to make, I suggest you take your time considering it. With things this big it's not good to make a rushed decision and then end up regretting it later. But whatever decision you end up making, I'm rooting for you ( ... )

I don't know much about Christianity. I thought all religions were a way of life. >.< But I agree, Islam is more ingrained into your actual daily life. Everything is related to religion.

I'm pretty sure my family would, like, disown me or something similar to that. But that's not the problem. My problems are rooted in my fear of leaving Islam, my fear of Hell (if there is a Hell), and the fact that I'm just really confused as to what I believe. So...yeah. >.<

So you did it :) Good for you, I'm proud of you. I haven't taken that step yet.

So, what do you say if we go and celebrate your atheism by going to see the movie, which sneakily tries to convert children to christianity? I mean Prince Kaspian, of course. Let me know if you want to go.

Thankies. It was actually frighteningly easy after I had finally reached the decision. It took less than a minute through the net, which made the whole thing feel really trivial. It's the decision making that takes time.

Sure, I want to go. I was actually thinking about suggesting it to you but for some reason I assumed you would have made plans to see it with someone else... But if you haven't, I'm in. I'm not sure you'll see this, so if I don't hear back from you in a couple of days I'll text you.

Yeah, I've been to the site for a few times, but I always backed out. Something holds me back, I guess. I don't believe in Christianity, but I do have a God of some sort, so... yeah. Anyway, the church does do some good with the money it gets from me. So for the time being, I'll just postpone the decicion.

But the movie. Friday or Saturday would be good for me. I'm working this weekend, so I can't stay out too late, but let me know when it's good time fo you.
