Why Western Women Are Converting to Islam
The Free Press ^ | November 18, 2023 | Francesca Block and Suzy Weiss

It took Megan Rice just three weeks to go from first opening the Quran to professing her belief that Muhammad is the one true messenger of God.

It all started on October 20, when Rice, a black American millennial-aged activist, announced on TikTok that she was reading the holy book for the first time.

Perched on her couch in a gray sweatshirt, she said to her then-400,000 followers in a video that has since been viewed more than 5.3 million times: “It just seems that Palestinians have this ironclad faith even in the face of losing quite literally everything.”

Three days later she founded the World Religion Book Club, a virtual community now boasting more than 13,000 members, where she conducts live readings of the Quran. Israel’s response to the Hamas attack on October 7 is where her journey toward the religion “all started,” she told her followers on November 2.

Apparently these converts are tired of living.

The American left has driven Christianity out of the public square, creating a void that’s being filled with evil nonsense.
BTW, Islam is not a religion, it is a murderous cult and completely unacceptable in America. Their values are not our values. They are collectivists, with no understanding of the rights of an individual, the very foundation of our political system and way of life, which is exactly why democrats love them so much.
Deport them all before it’s too late.

A lot of people converted to Islam after 9/11 too. There’s something about murder and violence that attracts these people to that philosophy. The carnage of 9/11, the raping and murdering of women and children and burning people alive on 10/7 is somehow strangely compelling to these people. That is not God, however. That is the devil.

Faminazis and weak men. That’s why. They know something is missing but can’t put 2 and 2 together.

I have a very tiny amount of sympathy for people born into that vile religion, but converts are complete scum worthy of nothing but contempt.

Because they hate themselves.

And they are idiots.

Yes, *seems*. People see what they want to see.

True Christians have that kind of faith and I don't see massive numbers of people converting to Christ.

So how do those three translations compare to what is really said in Arabic?

This pure propaganda. Millions of Iranian and Indonesian women are converting to Christianity. A much bigger story. Plus many US Muslim women convert to Christianity but to report this serves no purpose for leftists.

Darned if I know, I don't read Arabic.

I have a translation from the 1870s, and they seem close to it.

I figure with 3 Imams' translations this is probably about as close as one can get.

Of course this is the reason many of the founding fathers of the USA learned Greek to be able to read the classics in the language they were written in.

Seldom will any translation be able to exactly convey what the original author meant.

“It just seems that Palestinians have this ironclad faith even in the face of losing quite literally everything.”

So do Jews (remember the Holocaust?). And Christians.

Only one of those holy books was written by a warlord, and the other two by pacifists. Guess which one?

Good point. We don't bother to learn Greek anymore.

“The American left has driven Christianity out of the public square, creating a void that’s being filled with evil nonsense.”

Not just the American left, but the European left, the Australian left, etc. The left has not only banished Christianity, it has also infiltrated its largest denominations. So, it’s been a two-pronged attack: from without and from within. With organized Christianity on the ropes, Islamism, paganism, Satanism, witchcraft etc. are filling the void. Not sure what it’s going to take to right the ship, but it needs to happen soon.

I’ve heard that the English *translations* don’t match very well what is actually said in Arabic. They are deceits.

The translations I to English have seen that were done since the 1970s or so have been changed to make Islam appear to be a "religion of peace".

I have a translation from the 1870s that pretty much is the same as the one I link to done my 3 Imams.

From whatever I know about Quran, it shall never be translated!
Only original Arabic is authorized, so you must first learn Arabic to study it.

As a matter of fact, according to Muslims, the Holy Bible has been corrupted by translations !? Kind of lame, since we have good original Hebrew and Greek versions still around, but explain this to a fanatic!
