When I Became a Muslim - Blog Entry

03 Aug 2006 06:51 PM

It is interesting. One of the reasons that I am not a Muslim goes beyond the decor, or lack thereof. After reading the Qur'an a couple of times and realizing that it ends without any note of grace, and after reading about the real position of women in Islam, I decided I was quite happy with Jesus. He let women sit near him & learn. He not only taught forgiveness, He prayed for his crucifiers to be forgiven. Jesus cared about his mother even when he was suffering & had a follower of his care for her. Jesus cared about widows enough to raise a son of a widow to support her & healed women that were deathly ill. Muhammed would make widows one of twelve wives. I prefer Jesus.
