"O ye who believe! Ask not questions about things which if made plain to you, may cause you trouble... Some people before you did ask such questions, and on that account lost their faith." (Quran. 5:101-102)
Faith Freedom International is a grassroots movement of those who asked prohibited questions and on that account lost their faith. We came to see that Islam is a hoax, an imperialistic ideology, disguised as religion, invented by a narcissist for his own personal gains. We found out tha

Exminister.org is a fellowship of both ex-ministers and ex-christians. Our conviction is that people need to be educated and encouraged to depart the institutional road of religion. The founder, Brian Worley was an ordained Baptist minister who had for conscious and intellectual reasons to walk away from the faith in 1999 (he was a Christian for 23 years). We understand that faith is both very personal and important to those of you that believe. You may feel we are evil and blinded to what you
