    I’m Muslim, why I’m Muslim? Because I was not created in vain, I am not a meaningless thing in a meaningless reality. If that were the reality, then suicide would be better, but Islam fills that void within me. Thanks Allah 🤲

    Atheist. Religion is an explanation of the world that’s made the fuck up. I think people make shit up to explain reality because accepting uncertainty is difficult, but that doesn’t make it ok. The world around you exists, just like it is. There is no special place you get to go if you follow the right set of rules .

    My true faith is: don’t be an asshole and be a decent, rational and empathetic human being.

    Everything else I may or may not believe does not matter, it’s decoration.

    Organized religion is created as a mean to control people.

    But we’re on a rock in space that developed sentient life… How the fuck ?
