Atheer, a 19-year-old from a poor, heavily Shiite neighborhood in southern Baghdad, said: “The religion men are liars. Young people don’t believe them. Guys my age are not interested in religion anymore.”

Unfortunately, the girls are feeling the oppression more than the guys. It will take years to get the guys to move away from extreme Islam just as it took years to get people to move away from extreme Christianity. We have to keep in mind too that Iraq has always been more secular than the rest of the Arab world.
