From Miriam Pschak “I was born a Muslim in Iran. I was raised on Islam, educated in its scriptures, and even became an Islamic leader here in America—an Imam, an executive director of CAIR, and president of the Muslim Forum of Utah. So don’t insult my intelligence by telling me I believe in something I don’t understand. I understand Islam inside and out—and that’s why I left it. You say Islam is the religion of Abraham and that Christianity is paganism? That’s the same tired propaganda I used to preach before I studied the Bible for myself. Abraham looked forward to the promise of the Messiah (John 8:56), and that promise was fulfilled in Jesus Christ—the Son of God, not just a prophet, but God in the flesh. You call it idolatry, but the truth is, you worship a distant, unknowable deity who demands submission but offers no assurance of salvation, no love, and no personal relationship.
Islam claims simplicity, but it's not spiritual clarity—it's theological shallowness wrapped in slogans. You say “God alone,” but then claim the Qur'an is eternal and uncreated, that Muhammad is the perfect man, and that prayers must be recited in Arabic to be valid. That’s not pure monotheism—that’s blind ritualism. You call Christianity confusing, yet it’s Islam that denies the very sacrifice that fulfills God's justice and love. I’ve seen Christian doctors, scientists, and theologians embrace Jesus not because they’re deceived, but because they found the truth—a truth you refuse to face because it means letting go of the lies you were fed. Islam is not the religion of Abraham—it’s a 7th-century political invention that twisted Scripture to build an empire. I left Islam not because I was ignorant—but because I finally understood it. And once I saw the truth in Christ, I was set free.”
