Beyond Belief.
Season 1 followed the questions that eventually made inherited belief impossible to hold honestly. Beyond Belief begins the morning after that realisation—when leaving religion is no longer an argument, but a life that must be lived.
These essays explore uncertainty, memory, responsibility, identity and the search for meaning without religious certainty. They also consider a question that can be especially complicated for a secular Malay in Singapore: how do you leave a faith without feeling that you must also surrender your culture, relationships or sense of belonging?
This is one person’s experience rather than a template for every ex-Muslim. It may nevertheless offer companionship to people adjusting to life after religion, and insight to those trying to understand someone they care about.
