Default Manifesto of the Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain

Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain


Manifesto of the Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain

We, non-believers, atheists, and ex-Muslims, are establishing or joining the Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain to insist that no one be pigeonholed as Muslims with culturally relative rights nor deemed to be represented by regressive Islamic organisations and 'Muslim community leaders'.
Those of us who have come forward with our names and photographs represent countless others who are unable or unwilling to do so because of the threats faced by those considered 'apostates' - punishable by death in countries under Islamic law.

By doing so, we are breaking the taboo that comes with renouncing Islam but also taking a stand for reason, universal rights and values, and secularism.

Whilst religion or the lack thereof is a private affair, the increasing intervention of and devastation caused by religion and particularly Islam in contemporary society has necessitated our public renunciation and declaration. We represent a majority in Europe and a vast secular and humanist protest movement in countries like Iran.

Taking the lead from the Central Council of Ex-Muslims in Germany, we demand:

Universal rights and equal citizenship for all. We are opposed to cultural relativism and the tolerance of inhuman beliefs, discrimination and abuse in the name of respecting religion or culture.
Freedom to criticise religion. Prohibition of restrictions on unconditional freedom of criticism and expression using so-called religious 'sanctities'.
Freedom of religion and atheism.
Separation of religion from the state and legal and educational system.
Prohibition of religious customs, rules, ceremonies or activities that are incompatible with or infringe people's rights and freedoms.
Abolition of all restrictive and repressive cultural and religious customs which hinder and contradict woman's independence, free will and equality. Prohibition of segregation of sexes.
Prohibition of interference by any authority, family members or relatives, or official authorities in the private lives of women and men and their personal, emotional and sexual relationships and sexuality.
Protection of children from manipulation and abuse by religion and religious institutions.
Prohibition of any kind of financial, material or moral support by the state or state institutions to religion and religious activities and institutions.
Prohibition of all forms of religious intimidation and threats.


Are their fears justified?

Maryam Namazie is a Communist activist of Iranian descent.

Maryam is currently the secretary of the International Relations committee of the Worker-Communist Party of Iran and a current member of the politburo and coordinating council of the party.
It's pretty pathetic that you can't even do the most basic research before posting propaganda like this. Commies having the audacity to claim Islam is totalitarian, pots calling kettles.

Not really. Pots can't talk. Kettles maybe, but not pots. That's just crazy talk.

The fact that she is the leader does not make it a communistic organisation , neither does it indicate that the member are communist,

Now I suggest instead of trying to be a Smart Alec you answer the question , do some research maybe!

Default Re: Manifesto of the Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain

maybe you should be more concerned with ex-christians who decide to become pagan wiccans instead of worrying about our athiests LOL

at least our folks dont become pagans, in the manner that yours do. or worst, they become satanists and have it propogated through people like marlyn manson.

I promise you there are waay more ex-christian athiests than you will ever find ex-muslim athiests. maybe the whole three in one, trinity is even too much of a headache for your own folks to try and figure out.

The qustion you guys need to be asking is very simple, why do so many christians flee the church is such huge vast numbers that you need to go find new converts among the animists and tribals of africa?
