Ok, you finally made your point clearly. I agee with you! I wasn't skirting the issue but missing your point when I misunderstood you calling me a moron and then an infidel!
There is no reason for name calling, however, even if I disagreed with you!
On the other hand, there are Americans who convert to Islam and the value of the article is to point that out even though it is not happening on as large of a scale as the Muslims or the BBC would lead us to believe. That is my only point. For Christian pastors in America to hide from that reality makes no sense to me. Some people in our churches are attracted to Islam, period. The church should try to do a better job at retaining such people but they can't if they deny the issue.
