Welcome to Home of Apostates!
There are many apostates who live in exile in fear of being persecuted if they return home. They are mainly from Islamic dominated countries. Islamic regimes cruelly suppress any kind of apostasy. They punish apostates with fatal tortures and execution.
Everyone has the right to abandon his/her religion without being persecuted or discriminated. We fight against the persecution of apostates. We stand up against religious discrimination and intolerance. It is a long way ahead but there will be a day that apostates will be able to live safely all around the world in peace and harmony with other people.

People who believe in god(s)/religion(s) seem to say that "God is most important" in their lives (then family, then work). But god doesn't exist. I have a concern that because the…Continue

I want to know more about that period in Spanish history when all three monotheistic religions existed peacefully side by side. Then I want to go back to the Alhambra by time machine.

Mansur Al-hallaj was a Persian Sufi and poet. He was executed by Abbasid Caliph Al-Muqtadir .
Mansur Al-Hallaj was a great man. I believe he was one of the first humanists in Islam. His famous quote is “I am The Truth”. “I” doesn’t mean Mansur himself but it represents the humanity. He was the first Muslim who challenged the absolute power of ALLAH.

@Sayed. I agree. Massignon however points to the an'l haq (sp?) as a kind of casus belli for Mansur's arrest. It seems some of the mullahs disliked him hanging around with what Massignon refers to as "inverts" (19th century language for gays). Persia before Iran was a place of enormous art masterpieces and I am lucky enough to have a piece of Persian folk art, a little bas relief with painting of a prince on horseback. My mother gave it to me after returning from a trip to Tehran.

I am also a great fan of Sufi folk tales, e.g. those of the Mullah Nasrudin. Very, very funny stories.

What is the status of Sufism in a country like Iran?

The late Luis Bunuel would have loved the Nasrudin stories. They are surreal.

Probably not much different from the status of Baha'i, which is denigrated, attacked and condemned in Iran, and has been practically since its inception.

I've always said that religions who most actively attack other religions and so-called spiritual movements are the ones most likely to doubt their own.

Well, I like Sufism.

Robert Anton Wilson said all Sufis are "clowns." He must have had Nasrudin in mind. Nasrudin went to the bank and asked to withdraw funds; when asked for some identification, he took out his I.D. card, looked at it, and put it back into his pocket. "Yep. That's me."
Of the one where a rich neighbor's servant answered the door and Nasrudin asked, "I'm collecting for charity, is the master home?" The servant said, no sir. Nasrudin said, "Then you better take his portrait out of the upstairs window."

Death of a family member
Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 6:15pm 1 Comment 0 Likes
OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.
I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…

What do you think of this,
Nathan Young,
No Jason Torpy it is you that should be banned for promoting atheism, a belief that has no foundation in reality and zero proof behind it. The letter was a mockery of your atheist beliefs. I request to the board here that they remove Jason for his unverifiable beliefs in atheism for which he has no proof other than his arrogance. The letter was a mockery of atheism. Atheism is stupid and it should be mocked and it…

What do you think of this Facebook comment?
Nathan Young to Jason Torpy,
for once you and I can agree on something. We should disrespect beliefs that are untenable such as the belief that there is no God. Indeed for me to respect you Jason, I cannot respect your belief in non-belief in atheism. Your atheism comes across as arrogrance, smugness, and self righteous. Indeed after reading "An Open Letter to My Religious Friends" I penned one…
