Yes.
My family was quite religious but still moderate when we lived in Indonesia and the multiracial neighborhood in Malaysia.
Things took a huge turn when we moved to a religious neighborhood; comprising population of one race.
My parents become more religious. My dad goes to mosque every day. My young brother and I were sent to religious school.
But the thing is I cannot get the logic behind the holy book. I questioned a lot. But I was still known as the most well educated student in Islam in that religious school. I was even elected as the school's preacher. I led prays for hundred of students every day. I lived in hypocrisy.
What bothers me is how my parents and siblings become more narrow minded in a way. My parents particularly my mom becomes quite racist and she thinks Muslims and Malays (Malays are a race; automatically Muslims) are superior than others.
They were different before. I blame the religion for changing my family.
Well Darius, some people are blinded by religion I guess. They have been well brainwashed. I don't get it myself but not much I can do.
Things will become complicated (again) for me in another few years though. I have to come out for second time to my family because I'm sure they will ask me to wed one day. I'm ready if my family wants to disown me. I'm financially and mentally okay. I'm a big boy now.
