It's long, longer than one of DA's posts, but worth the read, giving a perspective on belief and non-belief in the Middle-East and north Africa that we practically never get to see through western media.

Re: Eye-opening article on atheism/non-belief in the Arab world
Good read. All I can say is that it sucks things like this need to be written to convicne Westerners that not all Arabs are super zealous Muslims, or Muslims at all. I mean, to me it's intuitive not to assume that a huge chunk of the world all thinks the same. Hopefully this shines some light on silly stupid people.
The agonies which are have their origin in the ecstasies which might have been.
