Afraid of being atheis in Indonesia

Ok, fist off my english is not really good and i live in Indonesia. In my country being atheist is no different as being someone who need to be killed asap. No one here accepting Atheism. I, myself is no different. When i talk about my view everyone view me as an immoral monster and slowly distanced themselves from me. What should i do? I don't want to lose my friends and my co worker, but on the other hand i felt like i couldn't bear it no more living here. Any suggestion about my problem? It's classic but it depress me day after day. Being atheist itself is so hard here, let alone getting a girlfriend that has the same view as mine. I'm previously a moeslim but it's been years i stop caring that i'm not a moeslim anymore. My id card still says i'm a moeslim but my mind is definitely and atheist. Sorry for the long post, any suggestion?

With near 90% islamic

With near 90% islamic believers in indonesia, it is no surprise that your life may be at risk...especially seeing in the quran, in allah's word, and from the insane prophet, it tells all followers of islam to kill atheists, and apostates, as you are. It is good you can reason that a god does not exist, however, I would try and be safe.

Any answers for him cranky, to help him live among the peace loving muslims in indonesia?

Welcome! And also any of the other Muslim atheists that have posted/joined recently?!?!

A good opportunity to discuss common issues that I personally can’t relate to on the same level.

I do look forward to your thoughts on subjects though.

Lie, pretend to be Muslim for as long as you have to stay in Indonesia, it is the only way to stay safe.

Plan and wait for an opportunity to leave then do not look back

Shit. I’d be afraid to live in Indonesia. I’ve been there. I’d recommend relocating. Until then, keep quiet.
