Proud infidel

posted 23rd Feb
I was thinking about this because I saw a truck yesterday with a bumper sticker on it that said "American Infidel" in Arabic and English on it. I was thinking, what the point of it is? Like, does he think he is expected to be Muslim or something and thus has to show his pride of being a non-Muslim? I've seen a LOT of bumper stickers, tattoos and t-shirts with this:


It says "Kafir" which means infidel.

I just want to know what the point to be made with it?

I don't know. Maybe he's one of those people who wants to be noticed for being different.

How's it different, though? lol. Non-Muslim is the majority in the U.S.

Is it supposed to offend Muslims?

That would be my guess.

He's probably embracing his freedom of speech.

Oh wait. I thought you were talking about an Arabic man. It's a white guy? I have no idea.

Yeah! I mean I've only ever seen white/American folks with these things.

I just think it's kind of dumb. Like why should I (or anyone else) care if he's not a Muslim lol? This isn't Saudi Arabia. Just doesn't seem like the type of thing you'd need to advertise because usually, the type of people I see who have these stickers and stuff are quite obviously not Muslim.

To me it's the same as if I walked up to everyone I met and introduced myself like "Hi, I'm not Christian."

I agree with your analogy!
I assumed it was a guy from the Middle East, too. Now I think he probably is just trying to offend people.

I had an Arab guy at a gas station say that to me and I almost died. At first I didn't know if I should laugh or pee my pants and then he goes, "Have you seen that puppet guy? He's too funny!" It was one of the best moments of my life. I'm now a loyal customer.
