KC has had mosques and a full fledged madrassa since the mid 90's. The KC Madrassa was funded in large part by the Saudi royal family, along strict Wahabbist lines.
Islamic centers are now complete at all 4 year universities in KS, also with the help of the Saudi's. KU & KSU have the main centers for spiritual doctrine, the imam in KU is a supposedly well respected Pakistani. The Islamic Centers at Fort Hays, WSU, Pitt, and Emporia are merely outreach and "spiritual development" centers.
Rumor has it that if you convert to Islam they will help pay for college, but I don't know the veracity of this. Supposedly works to get inner city youth into college and into the muslim community.
Welcome to middle America!
OMG....so....are they "moderate Muslims?"
A cancer on our nation which must be excised before it is too late.
So how many churches are in the whole Saudi Arabia?
Rumor also has it that if you decide to convert to Islam and then think you can just change your mind and become a Hindu or a Jew or whatever, think again. The only way out of that religion (so peaceful...right?) is to die. At the hands of Jihadists I'm sure.
