at our mosque we are considered free willed and thinking

we are muslims and we attract many of the people that have there own unique style,such as funky colored hair, tattoos, piercings, some men have very long hair, we believe that its not what we wear that matters its our faith and devotion to the 5 pillars that count. many muslim woman that come wear the ha jib in my opinion religious attire should be worn, during prayer, but many woman and men do not. i just wear long sleeve shirt and pant

How excellent.

Diversity of expression shows our richness, I think. What could be richer?

Thanks, MakeupPrince.

Well I made it to :57. Maybe this may help you?

"Freethought holds that individuals should neither accept nor reject ideas proposed as truth without recourse to knowledge and reason. Thus, freethinkers strive to build their beliefs on the basis of facts, scientific inquiry, and logical principles, independent of any factual/logical fallacies or intellectually-limiting effects of authority, cognitive bias, conventional wisdom, popular culture, prejudice, sectarianism, tradition, urban legend,

Cimbolic, my dear friend kauaikit loves to look at anti-islamic videos only!

Don't let him confuse you when he speaks about being open minded, logical principles, wisdom..

The only fact i know is accept and respect others whether you agree or not, if you can't accept the diversity in beliefs i don't know what to say...

Hi io1,

Just found your comment. I agree with you.

Free mind and free HEART. :)

Thank you for the "help" kauaikit. :)

That's an excellent definition.

I think it takes courage to be a Free Thinker, because you leave behind the comfort and security of dogma and of the herd. But I think it needs to be done. I think we should always take inventory of and question our beliefs. Then we can choose more freely, and our choices are more meaningful.

Dig the video. I feel compelled to offer that I consider myself to be a Free Thinker. For years, I considered "religion" to be a load of crap. I was a self-described agnostic before reverting to Islam--the one thing I always wondered was, "how have we made it to the year 2000 and failed to find a societal structure based on logic and justice?" I believe Islam is super-corrupted, and many of its visible manifestations are purely political. I also question the validity of many Hadith...

Not nice to spread untruths, right? All the videos you send me I review & remain open minded.

Maybe a projection going on, hence why your not interested in how Islam really started & why? Let's look @ what the historical scholars say & both look at the evidence presented?

Looking at multiply opinions & evidence is what? Refusing to even look at all the evidence is what?

Remember a fanatic is someone not willing to change the subject.

Look @ my favorites I view.

Stay skeptical.

This is excellent, kauaikit. Thank you very much!
