Greetings

WELCOME TO THE FORUM!!

Yeah, I know what you mean. "Secular Muslim" is always a contentious term. I guess I'm what you call a "cultural" or "ethnic" Muslim. But I'm definitely not a believer. Far from it. I hope that's tolerable on this forum.

Islam is neither cultural nor ethnic, its a religion...and everyone was born muslim unless their parents have changed them or even if they changed it themselves...so do u mean you were brought up as a muslim? both of your parents are muslim, etc etc or are u saying that you were born muslim but chose to be athiest (or of another faith) as would be (according to Islam) every other nonmuslims situation...?

peace
