Who are we? We are Muslims of varying degrees of religiousness: Some of us are practicing Muslims who simply want to take a more objective look at our teachings. Some of us want to discuss certain tenets of our faith that don’t sit well. Some of us have come to the realization that organized religion isn’t for us and want to discuss why. In a nutshell, we're a group of ex-muslims, progressive Muslims, LGBTQ Muslims, etc, hence the name muslim-ish. We're not the typical "mainstream" muslims, so d …
