I noticed you voted no in the Ramadan thread, have you also walked down the road of Micheal Mariano?
i would say that it would be a convenient claim. causation does not equate correlation and vice versa. values can be shared. like you say it comes down to how much you make yourself believe in it. key word here being conviction. "find conviction in your heart". sounds a lot like indoctrination doesn't it?
Our dhaqan is intertwined with values and traditions that derive from our deen, we've been Muslims for much of the history of Islam.
A ex Muslim somali can be somali in my eyes, but they can't claim to represent culture, tradition, or anything.
are you implying that i left the deen because i wanted to have fun in the dunya? no. i left because it no longer coincided with my belief systems. simple. but good psychoanalysis.I think you meant to say Correlation does not imply causation. I don't understand how the phrase is useful in your argument.
You are more into the "convenience" zone than I am. People who are not muslims in islamic households are people looking for convenient ways to pursue their desires that contradict the culture they see around them.
The smart move is to hold your tongue, be honest about your choices, move on without pretending you have an idea of what you gave up on.
Drink to your heart's content if you want for example, but don't justify that by saying God does not exist or Islam is bad. That would be futile move and it backfires often.

You assume that I'm rejecting god, I am criticising whether he is up there or not. you still haven't understood. The fact that you assume that i am like this because of "desires", says more about you than me...Your take on Islam in defense of your choice fell short. Wish the best for you moving forward in your hedonism. Someday when you hit the bottom and realize a swig from henny does not equate God you might return to the fold.
Some Somalis do drink and party. Their conviction in God's existence makes them stay in the faith and they hope to change their ways in order their actions to reflect their faith. These strugglers are smarter than you.
Adiga, convictionba maadan lahayd to begin with, so you started rock bottom and seem to be going deeper, justifying that with weak arguments. You traded everything for an inferior explanation and you think you are smart for that.
I hope you learn from experience and return to your roots.
Death is the ultimate fate waiting for all. It is enough of a mystery that one thinks twice about Life and the wisdom behind it.
