The Coming out ...

I am an Apostate. I am thirty something male living in San Francisco bay area. I grew up in an Islamic family, so by default I was brought up as a Muslim. I was forced to practice religion until I left my home country and started living in US. I never accepted Islam as my religion and was mostly 'agnostic' towards religion in general. It is only in last few years that I have come to the conclusion that I am an Atheist i.e. I do not believe in any God (Allah etc). I came to this conclusion using my common sense and after years of studying science, philosophy and evolutionary biology. I do not believe in any prophets (be it Mohammad, Abraham or Moses) and I do not believe in Koran being word of God since I reject all Gods.

This is my blog to put my thoughts in writing and come to terms with a realization that if I go back to my home country, I face death penalty for the crime of Apostasy.
