Yeah, you are still pinning her for her belief in Islam because members of Islam have been and continue being vile detestable people. But they aren't vile detestable people because of their belief in Islam any more than the Christians, Catholic or otherwise, are evil because of their belief in Christianity. They are vile and detestable people regardless of their belief. Their religious beliefs isn't the source, though it does end up being a justification for those acts. But that's just sophistry used to cover their own prejudices.
She dumped Christianity and chose a different religion. That doesn't make her culpable for the evils of that religion any more than anyone else is for the deeds of others who believe in the same religion they do.
No, No, and No.
I mildly criticise her for switching from one flawed main stream to another flawed main stream. You incorrecty mixed Sunni with various sects of islam. 85% of Muslims are Sunni, 48.1% of Christians are Catholic.
My real issue is that both denominations are wildly incompatible with her choice of lifestyle so these choices are weird to me. They certainly did not help her mental health.
I don't think her switching religions had a detrimental effect on her mental health. Probably quite the opposite. And it really doesn't matter that she switched from one mainstream religion to another mainstream religion. It's not like joining an offshoot's going to be any better or worse. She was seeking peace. Maybe she found it, maybe she didn't, that's for her to decide in whatever afterlife she ended up in.
