Turning Muslim in Texas
"George W Bush may be backed by Christian fundamentalists but in his home state of Texas, Islam is the latest big draw. The Bible belt is transferring its allegiance to the Quran because, for many erstwhile Christians, believe it or not, the church is too liberal.
"Eric was a Baptist preacher before he became a Muslim 14 years ago. Now he prays five times a day and even in the middle of watching a football game. His wife, Karen, also a convert, is covered from head to toe in the traditional Muslim burka. Islam, says Eric, is everything I wanted Christianity to be. His mother has found it hard to come to terms with her sons conversion and believes he will return to the Christian faith: Then he will be a dynamic preacher. Eric says: "Maybe some day she will embrace Islam. http://www.turntoislam.com""

Attention! Ne consultez surtout PAS les archives des mois précédents! En effet, je publie tant d'articles par jour que le contenu d'un mois est énorme, et de consulter un mois passé risque de faire crasher votre ordinateur. Utilisez plutôt la fonction "rechercher" et "sur le blog" tout en haut de la page ou la fonction "Search this blog" de Technorati dans la colonne de droite; ou mieux encore, utilisez la fonction "CATEGORIES" qui se trouve dans la colonne de droite. Je suis en train de travailler sur une éventuelle solution pour les archives mensuelles.
Caution! Do NOT consult the archives of past months! Indeed, I post so much every day that the content of any given month is enormous, and to consult any previous month could cause your browser or even your computer to crash. Better use the "search this blog" function - either at the top of the page or the Technorati one in the right-hand column. Better still, you could also consult the "CATEGORIES" in the right-hand column. I am currently working on a possible solution for the monthly archives.
