You have no idea how much of an inspiration you are to Muslims like me. I'm glad that people like us who believe that all that is needed for love is being of age and consent, regardless of gender. I wish you all of the best and here's to a day when our interpretation becomes the mainstream across the world.Β

My only wish is it had happened sooner. The Ottomans decriminalized homosexuality a whopping 100 years before the same was done in Europe, I wish that hadn't been undone by war. I deal with anxiety and when it acts up there's this terror that my faith is incompatible with the modern world, but then I see art like this and read about the storied history of queer Muslims during Islam's Golden Age and I can come back to reality.Β

What people don't understand is that just because one person is a certain way and they just happen to be what they are, doesn't mean the rest of the people who are that certain thing are like that one person. What I'm trying to say is that, just because someone is Muslim and does something, that other Muslims are like that. Like some Christians have been serial killers, doesn't mean we are all serial killers. So back to my original point here not all Muslims are terrorists.
People just have to pin the blame on some type of people which is very wrong. Nowadays we are just so judgmental and rude.

I'm not even Muslim (I'm an atheist, but of course I dont bash people for having a religion. After all, I might not believe there's a god, but who knows if there really is a god or not) but this just, is really beautiful to me, especially the description, it's so powerful and it made me realize just how hard it must be, I never thought about that ... I cant even imagine. I really hope there'll come a day where you wont be afraid of showing who you are just because some rotten people give your religion a really, indescribably bad name. From the little I know about being Muslim, it just ... seems like such a friendly and giving and kind and warm-hearted religion.

Your violent, intolerant pedophile-worshipping "religion" deserves nothingΒ butΒ hatred, you backwards sand pirate. You pieces of shit bring nothing but death and destruction everywhere you go yet you have the fucking gall to call yourselves "victims", fuck you.
No other religious group has destroyed, enslaved, and maimed as much as Muslims. People give christians shit for the crusades, but even that was in response to you pricks trying to expand into europe. Even fucking Buddhists had at one point decided the only logical solution to you is the extermination of every single one of you, you have to be a real special kind of a piece of shit to get that reaction from Buddhists of all things.
Fuck you, and fuck your pedophile prophet Muhammad (piss and pig shit be upon him).

Bruh, I'm christian, but that's straight up rude. I mean, personally I think that the religion doesn't make sense because it mentions Jesus (or Isa as its called in the quran), but that's rude. Don't go around bringing hate. I just gives a worse name to us Christians who try not to bother people.

Β Well, it is frustrating, the bigotry in liberal media. Their expectations of muslims are so appallingly low---because they won't fess up to the radical majority, the statistically observable numbers that, in alarming percents in middle eastern and muslim dominated countries, are regressive and violent Β (in mind set at the very LEAST according to Pew Research polls)----that it's led people to believe muslim reformists, like you, don't exist. This...this is heartening, because Islam desperately needs your help if it's going to change.Β Β To say Islam as it stands---where it's practiced in its most literal forms, especially---has a problem, is a gross understatement; as I'm sure you'll agree. While you have visuals celebrating homosexuality, in most of the middle east it's banned: if not put to the sword. Your art, and I'm sure this upsets if not outrages you as a creative mind, would be abolished; and you would be brutally punished. We can agree that can't be tolerated. It needs to stop; and people like you are the answer. I'm an atheist humanist, so I don't have a snugly misconception of abrahamic religion: quite the opposite, I'm very aware of the three branches and their bloody histories and precepts. As well as their cultural triumphs. In medieval times, muslims accomplished much in engineering, early science, chemistry, mathematics, astronomy, and even evolutionary theory. Even to this day some of my favorite guitarists are Tuaregs www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-cB62β¦ . There's a lot of good stuff, but then there's the backwards garbage---like circumcision, slavery and shariah---that's holding Islam back. And, right now in the west, there's a blanket moratorium on discussing Islam's flaws period. We can't see people like you, because we're punished for talking about Islam at all: saying 'Everyone's good.' is another way of saying no one is.
Don't get discouraged. You're changing your faith and culture already.Β

kay... several things:
1) me talking about my unique experiences is not-- and never will be-- an invitation to make such huge sweeping and disgusting statements as you have
2) my experiences as a non-straight Muslim is not something Westerners need to "save me from." I have been met with hostility from Muslims yeah but also violent oppression just as much from Atheists like yourself. I've also met the most encouraging and protective and nurturing Muslims who absolutely support my relationship. So kindly back off
3) good job feeding right into conservative media about horrible terrible Muslims. The Middle East is in exactly the state it's in because of Western meddling but I'm not going to bother explaining that to someone who seems so self-assured
4) I never want to be told I'm "not like the others" or I'm "one of the GOOD ones" that's so gross, this isn't a "me vs them" thing you're trying to make it out to be
5) the only thing appallingly low is you coming onto a personal and spiritual peace to talk shit about my religion... kay.
6) the only thing discouraging me is know-it-all white men like you who tell me how "fortunate I am to not live in the Middle East!" like honestly? fuck right off with your nonsense

How can there be a perfect image of Islam? It's a religion and no interpretation is wholy invalid. That's a True Scottsman fallacy.Β

I really admire you for who you are and how you are proud of yourself. I am Catholic and transsexual, still I'm happy of who I am and don't feel any guilt or feel like any religion or belief could define me. We're okay exactly the way we are, for our Gods made us this way.
Keep up the good work!!

The-Psychonaut In reply to TheSoraHeart [2016-08-15 04:24:41 +0000 UTC]
...But...didn't you just define yourself by a religion...by identifying yourself as Catholic? I mean there are gays who are Catholic, like Milo Yiannopolous, a jouranlist for Breitbart, but...there is something inherently paradoxical here. I mean, if you're Catholic in the sense that you espouse Catholic ideas and doctrine, to a point, I guess that's understandable.Β

I am completely indifferent to your being a Muslim. As it should be. You are a human being, not a belief.

This is so beautiful *wipes tears from eyes* I'm a muslim too, Pakistani one though. Β And I feel you because even though I live in America it still pains me to see so much hate comments for muslims. I should be used to it, but I'm not. It's really cool to see a Chinese muslim though. Asalaam alaikum! One question though. Are you female or male? Probably male based of your icon.

I don't think hateful treatment is something we can get used to, sadly... it's not something anyone should get used to, in my opinion.
I'm female though, haha!

Salam
ur drawing is very cool. However the theme is contradiction from the description.(In my opinion)
I would like to have chance to talk to u IF ur cool with it? Understand; I want to see how this specific train of thought works as calling oneself muslim.
REALITY:
I know this message isnt going to reach u but my fiber being wants to reachout =]
Salam
