EX-MUSLIM VOICES: 22 APRIL 2015 AT 715PM, ST JOHN'S COLLEGE
Dear all, Faith to Faithless is a new UK-wide group that aims to support those leaving or seeking to leave the Islamic religion. Leaving a religion is often a difficult decision but both in doctrine and in real life there are special penalties for those who wish to leave Islam. The UK does not like some countries attach the death penalty to this form of apostasy, but it remains true that many Britons who do leave face severe material and psychological difficulties. For this reason there are also many people who would like to leave the religion but are afraid to speak out. Faith to Faithless has so far run two inaugural events in which speakers describe their paths away from the religion, followed by audience questions and discussion. These have been covered in the national press: see for instance: http://www.spectator.co.uk/features/9453112/how-liberal-britain-is-betraying-ex-muslims/ The third and biggest such event will be in Cambridge at the DIVINITY SCHOOL, ST JOHN"S COLLEGE at 715PM on WEDNESDAY 22 APRIL All are welcome (religious or not) but you will need to book online (tickets are free) and you will need ID to attend. These are available at: http://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/ex-muslim-voices-cambridge-university-with-dr-arif-ahmed-tickets-16481918863 We'll look forward to seeing you there.
