Well I have recently met probably the most amazing person ever. His name is Feroz and he is a Muslim. He lives in my town. He isn't just any Muslim though, he is one of the most learned Muslims...like...ever. He has permission from all 7 of the major Sufi orders to teach their ways (he is one of only 2 people in the past half century to achieve this), he has worked with the Prime Minister, done Akido training for CSIS, and has an incredible intellect.
Last month, nineteen former foreign ministers, including from Canada Lloyd Axworthy met in Madrid to conduct a far-reaching assessment of the relationship between the West and the "Muslim World."
“Do you have any balloons?” asked the little boy, looking directly at me. The women beside me would have looked far more familiar to him. Each was wearing a hijab as we chatted beside a display table at an Eid celebration last Friday. My head was uncovered and I was wearing my big beaded cross necklace.

In what is likely the first of its kind in Canada, a Toronto mosque is offering a "detox" program for young Islamic radicals who are sympathetic to the terrorist group al Qaeda.
It was the third bomb this week in Pakistan. A man walked into a mosque in Jamrud during Friday prayers. The congregation was about the size of our gathering this morning. Just after the Imam said the words, “God is great”, the bomb was detonated. Half of the congregation were killed or injured.
Today we ill learn about (upon request of Crazy) the creation of a Muslim!
When a daddy muslim and a mommy muslim love each other very much...jk :P
No, this is the story of my Conversion, along the way I hope to clear up some misconceptions about islam that helped lead me to it, and if I miss something I will try to add it later in a seperate post. Bear with me...
