Haha, an islamist would consider majority of the muslims in this country "heretics", just like how a devoted catholic would do so for the christian majority in this country. But that doesn't mean anybody who has a personal jesus have to come out and claim they are apostles, does it?
I have never been a proper muslim, but I had to look like one.
In an islam state, you have 2 options, either be a proper muslim, or act like one.
Take ahmadiyya muslims in Pakistan, their story is heart breaking and shows the whole world what happens to you if you are not a proper muslim in an islam state. They are not considered as citizens so they can not vote, they don't get passports so they can not run away either. And they get MURDERED from left and right and nobody cares. They asked Pakistani muslims, "who you like to have as a neighbor", and interestingly, Pakistani muslims apparently can tolerate christians and jews and buddhists, but not ahmadiyya muslims.
So the reason islam is not bothering you, because you have never been a part of it.
You didn't answer my question. If Islam has to be the way you claim it does then how can people who don't practice that way still consider themselves Muslims? If they were truly running away from ISLAM itself then why would they continue to practice their religion in their own way after making good on their escape?
There are shit load of Iranians in this country who put their sheets aside when they made it to the US. You can ask them, why they still muslim and they condemn the islamic regime because they were pushing the hijab, which is written in the koran that woman should be wearing. Or ask the wive(s) of Saudi sheiks putting their hijab aside as soon as they land on an airport in a western state.
This alone shows you islam is not just a religion but all together an institution with rules, and very brutal and strict ones too.
I am not a muslim (anymore) so I can not answer to this question you repeatedly asking.
My point, they should not call themselves muslims. But they do. This is what you don't want to realize, reality doesn't fit logic, because your logic extends as much as your knowledge does, in which is not too far in this subject.
So essentially your entire argument boils down to the "no true Scotsman" fallacy. Got it.
I suppose you also think Christians who wear clothing of two or more different fabric types aren't real Christians either.
