My mother was telling my philosophy (antinatalism) is anti-Islam... I told her, it doesn't have to be... if u choose to be a righteous Muslim + not procreate, u can ask Allah for as many kids as u wnt in heaven + u will have a clear conscience knowing they didn't suffer on earth.

Christianity is more antinatalist friendly. Islam is a pronatalist breeder religion that is worldly + acts obsessed with an afterlife when it clearly isn't... if I had a choice, I'd choose Christianity over Islam... at least its compatible with antinatalism (which is my life).

I am surprised that more Buddhists are not AN because the essence of Buddhism is to escape samsara, the karmic Wheel of Birth and Death

Same here. But to be fair, I have never seen Buddhists breed too much. Most of them have 2 or 3 kids. Sri Lanka has access to abortion easily + one of the highest abortion rates - so they aren't too bad, better than other religions whose followers breed too much.

Christianity is the largest religious population in the world. They tend to breed uncontrollably, especially the Roman Catholics. But, as you already know my opinion, most Xtians don't follow Jesus but follow a bureaucratic organization called a "church"...

You're right... and Muslims are expected to possibly surpass Christians in population growth, they are about 1.8 billion people. If I was a Christian, I would follow Jesus + not the church... I was like that with Islam, only I preferred to follow the Quran not Muhammad.

I was AN before I had any idea about any kind of religion or philosophy. So, I'm just gonna stick with it... lol
Jesus didnt procreate according to the canonical texts in the New Testament Bible. "Go forth & multiply" is in the Jewish Tanakh or Old Testament

I never wanted a lot of children or a big family even before I was AN. 2-3 kids + I planned to not raise them religious + let them decide for themselves whatβs right. Then I realised how flawed the world is + became happy with childfree before I found AN.

Even as a Muslim, I didnβt like Muhammad. I always asked my parents why I had to love him more than them + I thought that was wrong. I found his marriage to Safiyyah to be sick + twisted. I wanted to follow God with as little to do with him as possible.

Been a long time since I was into Islam, but, it seemed to me that most Muslims followed the ahadeeth over the Quranic text. Also, Muslims told me much of the earlier Quranic text was "abrogated" by later surahs... I was like, "Wha? Allah made a mistake?" lol

I couldnβt accept having a so-called prophet kill the father, brother + husband of a woman + then have w her the same day. There r debates on Aishaβs marriage age, but I feel repulsed by child rape too. I also hated having to surrender my sovereignty to a man who could abuse me.

Hanafi Sunni Islam was also against adoption bc adopted children cannot inherit wealth from their adopted parents, this bothered me so much for some reason, bc I wanted to adopt at some point + I wanted to leave all assets to my adopted children so that made me hate Islam more.
