Name | Mehran Torkzadehtabrizi |

Statement | I was born in an intellectual and well-educated family. As I can remember my mother always fasting and tries to pray on-time three times a day, but my father was an architect. My Father was somehow more spiritual. Therefore, it gives me this opportunity to be a free thinker in first hand. But I have to say that some of my relatives are still very religious, despite the fact that all my uncles, aunts and cousins have university degrees. One of my uncles has stopped talking to me, because I said I do not believe in God and I have abandoned Islam. It has been so exciting for me to join council of ex-muslim. I have found many intellectual friends in the council. It is so great to be part of a group of atheists who publicly have bravely abandoned their religion particularly Islam. |
