Oh, fuck.

Yes, I plan on leaving as soon as I'm done with my college education. Problems with my family? Everything has a price, and securing myself a safe life in a country that protects me as a human by law has a price too. My family would probably not be ok with it the first few months or even years, but they love me and they'll learn to live with it.

Islam as a religion, in its most basic form, endorses a lot things that I agree with. Like, social justice, no racism, etc. But Islamic law, and this is my personal opinion, is Islam politicized. Most of the laws aren't in Quran, and the hadeeth they have been inferred from are hard to verify.

Best thing about Saudi, the cheap life style, the dry weather (no Monica-in-Barbados hair), and the scholarship programs that send students abroad.

One change I'd implement is making Saudi a constitutional democratic state, not a monarchy. (Saudi doesn't have a constitution, because as the king always says "Quran is our constitution")

I don't share thoughts and/or opinions at all with my family. Learned that the hard way. I don't care what they think of them, but I do care about their reactions towards them and the measures they might take in order to "fix" me.

You're absolutely right. I need to have a more informed opinion and look into the matter better.
