i'm not saying she is or she isn't muslim because i don't really know. probably because i don't really care. but just because she's posed or acted pr2000ovocatively doesn't necessarily mean that she's not muslim. maybe she's not a particularly observant muslim. there are a LOT of christians in the public eye who don't exactly behave in a christian-like manner. there are even more christians who aren't celebrities whose behavior could be described as blatantly UN-christian. that doesn't mean they're not christians, they're just not very good christians. maybe she's just not a very good muslim.

Jesus, sensationofeuphoria why is it you keep posting like you have some valid information, Yet what you come out with is total horse s***.
And you keep saying "irreligious" NEWSFLASH Brightspark, irreligious is not even a real word, Your the only one who uses it. Someone who is not religious in any way is an Atheist. So please stop posting the word "irreligious" in every post you make as it's frustrating.
Also you contradicted yourself, After the person before you said Sarah Shahi is a "non practicing muslim" You replied saying she is "irreligious"
But just because she is a non practicing muslim does not mean she doesn't have faith, You can still have faith yet not pray every day, It just show's she is not a hypocrite by practicing her faith and also playing the roles she has in the past.
Right, there I have had a bitchfit at you over that dumbbass word, Now I am done,
I'm Out -

"Irreligious" is a perfectly cromulent (and real) word. In the dictionary and everything. -

Atheist means you reject the concept of the existence of a god. Religious means you practice a religion. Deist you assume there is a God but he can't be bothered by these puny talking animals homo sapiens sapiens. Every human being has a sense of the metaphisycal, spirituality in any form does not mean a believe system with rules, punishment as such, living according to a religion. Not practicing a religion doesn't mean you're an atheist. You know only sith lords deal in absolutes :-). So for example I was raised as a Catholic, I later found that this religion was flawed and didn't agree with certain dogmatic principles excluding people from the grace of God. Also I found religion to be contra productive in dealing with real live problems in our world. It doesn't interest me since I was 12 or 11. However I'm not 'against' people finding strength in religion and if believing in a God made them a better person; well that's just peachy fine. If it works, it works. If you're Muslim be the best Muslim you can be, likewise with any christian or hindu, or whatever silly story you adhere to. Every human being has a sense of right and wrong (xept Psychos of course) so doing harm in any way to your fellow human brother or sister means your ideology has been perverted into a supremecist stance. I don't think of myself as a christian, but I do 'believe' in the message of christ, you should love your fellow man. World problems could be solved if we would only care a bit more for each other, right?
Conclusion; I find Sarah Shahi to be a modern american woman. I think she has values wich have it's origin in Islam, the faith of her childhood, we are born into a religious system most of the time. Like me she probably takes the best and well just skips the medievil mysogonist parts. It sure beats society filled with headscarves and sharia law.
Conclusion number two; is she muslim? probably not. But it's better not making it an issue, so as not to offend people, or avoiding the whole stigma thing in the media in the US.
