Hello
I should have written sooner but we have been inundated with emails and calls from ex-Muslims, supporters and others. Here are just a few we have received:
Ali says: ‘I'm a closet apostate of Islam… Hearing of your movement gives me hope.’
Amal says ‘…it's about time we ex-Muslims came together and had our voices heard.'
And they are not only joining from
Imran from

Clearly, we have hit a nerve because in just seven months, with the support of countless people like you, we have managed to challenge political Islam in
You can help us do more to break the taboo that comes with renouncing Islam and to push back religion’s adverse role in society at large by:
* Donating to our organisation. We need funds to cover everything from a campaign against the Sharia courts in
* Participating in our events. On March 10, we are organising a seminar with Equal Rights Now in commemoration of International Women’s Day entitled Sexual Apartheid, Political Islam and Women’s Rights at Conway Hall in
* Signing on to our campaigns and urgent actions. Right now we are gathering support to turn the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day into a day against sexual apartheid.
* Adding your name and statement to our list of members or supporters.
* Volunteering your time and expertise. We particularly need help in charity law, conference organising, researching, writing and broadcasting.
* Telling others about us by forwarding recent media coverage or our press releases to everyone you know...
According to the writer and philosopher AC Grayling, our manifesto constitutes ‘a bill of rights which is absolutely necessary for everyone, non-religious and otherwise, to adopt and observe now that the world is again experiencing, with such bitterness, widespread religion-generated difficulties.’
Together, we can and will change all that.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Warmest regards, Maryam
