- In the last 10 years you have behaved quite well, I admit. But in the history of the world ... well, you know. And believe me, I am not an idiot - probably a lot more intelligent than you are.

Hmmm...always gotta wonder about the ones that have to tell us they''re intelligent.

If anyone wants to take me on in a debate about evidence for the validity of this religion or any, I am up for it. But let me warn you if you think your religion is true: you will come across as the weaker-minded.

Fibonacci, you''''re a complete and total as*shole. Why don''''t you sit down and type us all a nice post listing how many suicide bombers, car bombs, and terrorist murders have been committed by Catholics in the last 10 years? It''''s going to be a very short list. In fact, the number is zero. You''''re an idiot.

Fibonacci -- Your religious bigotry has been reported for violation of CBS policies. You must be one of those "tolerant" liberals!

re: your comment

This convert has nothing to do with America. He lives in Italy. How are you using some asinine anti-American logic to explain his conversion?

Who cares. They can grab whatever land they want. It is a matter of survival. Unfortunately for the Palestinians, they are not so good at it. Evolution at work

"I was never practicing," he was quoted as saying. "I never prayed five times a day, facing Mecca. I never fasted during Ramadan."
How can he be a "prominent" Muslim if he can''t even do the basic Islamic deeds?
Indeed, some souls are designed for hell!

haaa haaaa... Lol... the number of non Muslims who convert to Islam is far greater than the number of Muslims who convert to Christianity

----------

People who haha and lol all the time come across to me as not being too bright. Some sign of intelligence in a discussion is always appreciated.

The fact is, far more people of other faiths (or no prior faith) are becoming Christians rather than Muslims or Jews. That''s the good news... on two levels.

It''''''''s good that a Muslim has converted to Christianity. Let''''''''s keep up the evangelism, Christians! (Matthew 28:19-20). Only 1.9 billion Muslims to go!

haaa haaaa... Lol. The difference is there because the number of non Muslims who convert to Islam is far greater than the number of Muslims who convert to Christianity or other religion. That is one of the many reasons that the media is giving coverage to this news.
You can''t trust Muslims. Most likely he changed his religion in order to get some gains in his professional life.

God is. Religion is man made, since man is imperfect then everything made by man is imperfect including all religion. Religions that do not evolve with the evolving spiritual needs will become irrelevant and perish - no hard feelings.

If you''re gonna get baptised, having it done by the Pope is about as high up as you can get I suppose.

Let the crusades begin.
Crusades and inquisition all rolled into one.
This should be entertaining.
