Glad he's gotten sentenced & no one was injured inside the mosque. Leaving Islam (or any religion) doesn't protect you from being radicalised. Radicalisation is always enemy #1.

You’re right. These (working class, immigrant) Ex-Muslims with their ostracised, often illegal, sometimes deadly, always dangerous to their mental health - making money (the Illuminati?) off their trauma.

Hope to get to the Humanists UK conference next year in Cardiff #Humanists2024 - not too far from sunny Bath.

And hope to catch up with friends/colleagues including Andrew Copson Dr Adam Rutherford Prof Alice Roberts💙 Jim Al-Khalili Imtiaz Shams.

This is a great conversation between #ExMuslim Imtiaz Shams
and a very interesting and educated convert to Islam. I love these types of interactions!

The awesome Alom Shaha on LBC talking about Faith to Faithless and our work helping those who have left faith - and the new census showing the move away from religion in the UK.

Nuanced, thoughtful movement building panel w Muhammad Syed (PBUM), Imtiaz Shams, Shirlee Draper, and Malkie Schwartz. What stands out to me most are the throughlines, the way the experience of leaving high control religious groups is so, so analogous across religions and demographics.

Great to see fellow London company Twipes in Buffalo with @forty3north !

Getting flashbacks to FLOX in 2021 😆

Mark your calendars! I'll be at the Rights and Religions 2022 conference--Oct 22 in Washington DC--alongside Imtiaz Shams, Muhammad Syed (PBUM), and tons of other great speakers!

As an Ex-Muslim & fellow Humanist who spends much of my time in Buffalo & upstate NY, this is disturbing.

Wishing Salman Rushdie the human rights advocate and our Humanists UK patron a fast recovery.

Ideas =/= people's lives, it's 2022.

Another day, another instance of punch down fascism by a majority towards a minority ❤️

I dislike talking about race on twitter but, also, dude, you’re a white Aussie. Please, do keep telling us how we’re self-hating for our own form of decolonisation.

Awesome new video from Imtiaz Shams and ex-convert Emily. Emily was 14 when she converted to Islam. Very interesting to hear her parents' response. 1/2

For the first time ever, the world will have an apostasy hotline.

If you’ve got a friend, family member, partner, student, etc who’s left religion and is really struggling - there will be a free number to call.

Watch this space, follow Faith to Faithless & Humanists UK.

We help people who have left high-control religions or cults. So called 'apostates' are at risk of 'honour-based violence', isolation, homelessness, & death. Imtiaz Shams co-founded our service Faith to Faithless, and will be speaking in-depth on apostasy in the UK at #Humanists2022

This thread is very sad, about how a woman was murdered for referring to Islam as 'nonsense.' I was a lil skeptical, like that seems extreme, but the replies to this particular tweet focus a lot on shaming her or saying she deserved it, which makes this all more plausible

Speaking at Alan Turing Institute with University of Oxford Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) & deep tech entrepreneurs about AI, the VC landscape & @forty3north

Dr Natalia Efremova Odin Vision The Alan Turing Institute

On Sat/Sun, we have a packed schedule of talks, lectures, & panel discussions. Speakers include Dr Adam Rutherford, @ACGrayling, Prof Francesca Stavrakopoulou, Laura Lacole, Imtiaz Shams, & Kate Devlin, with more still to be announced. humanists.uk/events/convent…

If you ever bought into Dr Jordan B Peterson. Conversion therapy; where children & adults are forced into sessions to 'convert' them out of being gay (impossible), is disgusting. This banning by Justin Trudeau isn't moral grandstanding, it is moral.

Does God exist? @BBCAsianNetwork Big Debate, I'm on from 7:00.

Faith to Faithless & Humanists UK mentioned about our work with apostasy. #ExMuslim #God
