My story is that for some reason I was the questioning one out of three children of rigid fundamentalist christians and their answers to my many (probably annoying but challenging) questions didn't convince me to continue to follow their beliefs. By the time I was in my mid-teens I'd decided I was an agnostic and was totally opposed to any form of spirituality for many decades, then dabbled in wicca and goddess spirituality for a while, now regard myself as atheist while still conceding there are a lot of unexplained things in the universe which may have some sort of spiritual explanation.
I guess your choices are clear: continue as you are, which is a decision to do nothing or work out how to get out from under ..... neither easy, I know. Good luck to you, it can't be easy for you but I'll bet you're far from alone
Is it normal to be jealous of white people as a muslim?
