If Islam has strong and convincing arguments, there would not be apostasy laws. Hardly anyone would leave. If Islam is secured in its knowledge and does not have anything to hide, it will welcome critics to challenge it openly without intimidation or threats. But believing in Islam is a process of brainwashing that is repeated throughout our lives where they tell us "We have perfect arguments. Islam is the perfect message by the perfect messenger that is sent to the perfect God." Yet, parallel to that and without flinching, we are told "Anyone who leaves Islam, anyone who criticises Islam, and under Shariah, anyone who does not fast, pray, or abide by Islam - they have to be executed!"
If you read those two statements and cannot see there is a problem, you suffer from a condition called "Doublethink". First introduced in the book 1984, it talks about the brainwashing process used by authoritarian governments to make you believe anything even when the facts are completely contradictory to each other. Islam is the authoritarianism of the brain. That makes most Mu'mens (not all) believe that it is a "religion of peace" but simultaneously believe every apostate and critic should be terminated as per Shariah Law - " And we will be watching. And we are proud of that," - as infamously said by that 🤡 Ali Dawah.
Imagine you really had the perfect religion. Not a single scientific or logical issue, not a single embarrassing verse of underage marriages or owning women as slaves, filled with real and marvellous scientific miracles that scientists are actually finding answers from it and not "scientists discover something and we twist the verses to make them sound like they are talking about it!'
Just imagine a perfect messenger who loved anyone, never owned a slave, demanded all slavery abandoned immediately, married one person because of her character not looks, over the age of 18, and together as equals they spread this perfect message! They say you judge the tree by the fruits it produces - and so far "the religion of peace " is proving to be a poisonous fruit that harms more people than any other major religion. And if you examine it independently from emotions, Islam has all the hallmarks of a cult. From the strict adherence to rules, to severe punishments for apostasy, and reverence of its leader who we should include in every prayer long side god, treasure everything he said or did - but simultaneously declared he is not a god but a humble human being. Welcome to Islam the religion of doublethink.
