If someone can "buy" your religion, you were not faithful anyway. Oh ye of little faith, Somalis tend to take their religion more seriously than that. Let everyone preach their viewpoints, if a little debate/ competition makes you nervous, maybe you should reevaluate...
Nobody it's saying the parents don't have a right. That doesn't mean they're actions can't/won't be criticised. Disowning your child for having a different religious opinion to you is straight down the line religious bigotry.

That depends entirely on the personal...
For some people, it is a central part of their identity. I don't see what would be funny about that.
