there's a whole lot of grey in the world...

.. so why does it bother people so much to be in the grey..
Some kick-ass girl is apparently involved with a non-Muslim guy and wants to marry him, but is afraid to tell her parents.
Typical story,,,happens a lot here.
Now marrying a non-Muslim to me doesn't seem like a bad idea, the less Muslim you are the less prone you are to growing a beard and wearing galabeya trois quarts. No matter what kind of Muslim you are, someone can come in and meddle in your brain and convince you that this superficial expression of personal beliefs is actually what Islam is all about. Now if you are not a Muslim then you have natural anti-bodies towards that disease-ridden way of thinking.
So YAY!
Marrying a non-Muslim guarantees also that your kids will accept and embrace both religions since they belong to both, this makes them less appealing to the ever growing anti-non-Muslims predators. So you might actually have a pretty decent kid!
Marrying a non-Muslim double's your feasts and presents! Which means on top of the Muslim eids (2), new year, prophet birthday you get Christmas, Easter, and new year or you get Hanukah (which apparently is only big on TV and not in real life) rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, etc.

Now say you are involved with a non-Egyptian or Arab then his family probably doesn’t give a rats ass what his ID says – hell his ID probably doesn’t say his religious affiliation. And even if they do care, they would be disappointed but won’t disown him (only our Egyptian parents think disowning is a logical course of action, bless their pretty little brains)
Now said individual can just convert on paper and you can avoid all the social scrutiny. And come judgment day you can make your case to god and see what happens.

If said individual is in fact Egyptian, then you move aboard – tell his parents that the girl has converted, tell her parents that the boy converted – and avoid putting both parents in the same room discussing this. Or you can just wait till you’re forty by then your parents will be happy you not marrying an ape – anyone would do!
But to be honest in that case – you are basically screwed – you gotta make a choice or move on.

The solution is all grey! Nothing is black and nothing is white – just a whole lotta grey, and it’s ok – grey’s in fashion this year – check Instyle magazine (it's in my bathroom library)
