I was born Catholic, changed to Islam, so yes, I am thinking for myself. I do not narrow my vision to one thing, as I read legitimate books (not online articles) on Buddhism, Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, Taoism, Judaism, of course Science and technology, and many philosophical and political doctrines. Based the information I learn, i create my own conclusions. So, in that case, I think I am doing as you would like :D
