 * Requesting to assume WP:Good faith. Following facts will show you, it is purely misunderstanding on your part.
 * a) I am in habit of making rational and logical but strong arguments at talk page, but most of my Wikipedia engagements are very civil, non personal, without edit wars. I do take breaks from discussions when things get heated up.
 * b) Our first engagement has been @ Talk:Islam in Finland on account of RfC raised by you and intimated at Wikiproject Islam talk page which in my talk list and where rarely though I do interact. So this interaction started on your invite only. I have taken sufficient breaks on my own in those related discussions. And kept matter only to the content. There is no edit in the article from my side so there is no question of edit war from my side nor any question of hounding.


 * c) You seem to have triggered by my latest edit @ Talk:SEPTA as proved in below table I am first to reach the article talk page almost before 40 days of yours.


 * d) You will find my old edits @ Talk:Encyclopedia showing my interest in Encyclopedia philosophy side.


 * e) You will also find me time and again talking about auditing articles for Women's rights issues @ Project Women in Red.


 * f) I came out with a list of 7 encyclopedic tools to discuss relevance after discussion @ an article talk page (where we have not interacted). I came to Talk:SEPTA developing my set of encyclopedic philosophical argument.


 * In both the article you were involved in article edit side. I have not edited those articles either.


 * Coincidental civil interactions at talk pages for content dispute of two articles is too little to think about hounding and all. When we spend good number of hours on Wikipedia some overlapping in areas of iterest is bound to happen. With many other users having different views than me I keep coming across much more, no other user has accused me of hounding at least up til now, you are the first one and mostly out of misunderstanding.


 * You may wish to differ with my argument, but it has nothing to do with any hounding what so ever. Requesting you again to assume WP:Good faith.


 * It is good to get in touch and clear the things that helps avoiding misunderstandings, so thanks anyways for your communication. and warm regards

 * Journeys of acknowledging atheism first to oneself, then to near ones. Coming out public is a last, often painful, step.
 * Anyone leaving a close-knit belief-based community faces prospect of parental disapproval, shunning by friends and relatives, and accusation of self-loathing. The issue can be especially trying and isolating for women who grow  up Muslim, at times they are  accused of trying to assimilate into a Western culture that scorns them.
