Hello from Layla

Post by Lisa Bauer » Wed Jun 24, 2009 12:23 pm

Hello! I'm here from RD.net (if anybody is from there, you may remember me) and I'm here because I was kindly invited to join.

Basically, I'm a former Muslim convert who was forced to realize how ridiculous and disgusting the entire enterprise was. After all too many unpleasant experiences with it, I've pretty much had it up to here with that kind of medieval mindset, especially as it involved women. Ugh! Plus, of course, the little fact that the entire belief system was based on a number of completely ridiculous (at least in retrospect) notions, like an all-powerful, all-knowing deity chose to dictate his final message to humanity to an illiterate seventh-century Arab...it seems a little far-fetched, you know? ;) I guess I don't know what I was thinking at the time, but I'm certainly over it now!

Well, anyway, I hope this will prove to be a fun forum! :cheers:

Layla

Um, just remember to follow the rules, Layla. We pray to cheese five times a day. Morning Omelet is in 15 minutes.

Morning Omelet is called when you can distinguish a White Cheddar from a Provolone.

Hey Layla! :flowers:

I've never seen you dismiss Islam in such robust terms before - you must be advancing a little further in your journey away from it. Congrats. :tup:

FUN is it most certainly is! :biggrin:
Then they for sudden joy did weep,
And I for sorrow sung,
That such a king should play bo-peep,
And go the fools among.

thy fool to lie: I would fain learn to lie.

Well, I've been going through a lot of, shall we say, issues with it, and I've become more angry with it. I don't know if the anger is new or if it was always there, repressed, and only now is getting a chance to be expressed.

I hope it'll be fun, too! :drunk:

Nice to see you, Layla! You'll be issues a Book of Common Cheeses shortly. In the meantime have a look around and see if anything is to your liking.
