  1. It must have been difficult trying to hold your own in a household so different from you, AJ. I hope that no-one tried to convert you.

  3. It is fanaticism, which distorts the religion, that is dangerous, not the religion itself. Having a particular belief is fine, as long as you do not harm anyone else who does not share it. Hating someone for having a different belief and killing them for it is not fine.

  6.  @khorasan2152  It is not done for health reasons, it is done for spiritual reasons. A fast is not a competition. It is not about "who can hold out the longest" without eating or drinking. It is about immersing yourself in your religion and paying attention to what God requests of you. If you consider it beneficial just for health reasons, you are missing the point of Ramadan. Anyone can fast for health reasons, but if you fast for Ramadan, are you listening to what God is actually trying to say to you?
