Let me Choose my RELIGION

Born as a Muslim, you are abided to follow all the rules and regulations of the religion whether you like it or not. Why can’t we choose our religion? We are not given an opportunity to choose our religion before we are born or when we are adult. Can Islam give us what we want? For some, the answer is “No”.

What are you going to be? Christian? Buddha? Hindu? Or just Pagan? Majority will choose Christian as their religion. What is so special about Christian in their eyes? It look easy to be a Christian but it doesn’t sound easy as it look.  Indeed, Christian can give what these people want like the most important thing in their live.  

Why some of them renounce back to Islam? Are they lost their fate to their new Religions? Well, it is hard to say, but maybe the law in Malaysia doesn’t allow Muslim to convert into another religion. Some of them even have been persuaded by their best buddy to renounce back but the truth is they will not change to Islam as the new religion can give them the most important thing that they want.

For me, the best religion is religion that can give you what you want. You can’t persuade people to believe in any religion but we need to give them time to search the best religion for them. It can be Christian or others.

Religion should be “gentleman”. We can’t force people to stay in the religion if they can’t contribute to the religion. We should free these people so that they will get and find what they want. If we keep these kinds of people in the religion it will ruin the religion as what we can see today.
