Ahhh..

Now THIS is an interesting development.

[AlaskaErik]

Now that's really bright. Adopt the religion, and I use the term loosely, of your former slavemasters and become part of a group that is terrorizing the world. Your ancestors drove the muslim hordes out so you could be free from their tyranny. Accept what they gave you. Rome used to rule the area where my family was from, but I certainly have no desire to become a Catholic.

Indeed, the Islam I know elevates women!," says Juan.

Which Islam is that, again?

[BenLurkin]

The Spanish fought long and hard to drive Islam off the Iberian peninsula. Are people so ignorant that the significance of those wars is lost on them today?

[joesnuffy]

Muslims have have been doing missionary work in central and south America for a while now
I would suspect that Mexican Catholics would tire of a church that hides and protects pedophile priests and be drawn to the muslim faith...that and muslims are pretty much anti white european
and anti American..
With designs upon America...coupled with the Aztlan movement...would be a nice match...
CAIR & Wahhabists must be salivating at the prospect.

[MizSterious]

Few Latinos from Central or South America can claim Spaniards in their bloodlines. Most have Indian ancestors. This "reclaiming their Islamic heritage" thing is bunk.

[shaggy eel]

many Latinos wonder, "why would you ever quit drinking and eating pork?" Some Latinos think you're a 'race traitor' for giving up the partying and the drinking.

,,, Juan's displacement opens a door of opportunity for me to become a Latino and enjoy the good life. Quando costa?

[Weimdog]

I think this is wishful thinking from Muslims in Malaysia...at least I hope it is.

"Like many women, Latinas are tired of being viewed as sex objects. Indeed, the Islam I know elevates women!," says Juan.

He should try telling this to Cristina Aguilera and some of the other latinas. No way ---just watch Mexican tv or latin discos and you'll see the latinas are NOT tired of being viewed as sex objects.

[redhead]

"Rome used to rule the area where my family was from, but I certainly have no desire to become a Catholic."

If your ancestral lands were any part of the Roman Empire, they could be anything from British, Italian, or French to Spanish, Portuguese, or Polish. The Caesars were pagans, and their people worshipped THEM.

[FITZ]

He says, many Latinos wonder, "why would you ever quit drinking and eating pork?" Some Latinos think you're a 'race traitor' for giving up the partying and the drinking.

There is no way most latins would become Muslims ----if anything they do like to have fun, they love dance and parties. The ones who don't already became Jehovah Witnesses.

[MissAmericanPie]

Hahahaha we deserve this. Fox News had a segment today about the growing Muslim prison population. Lot's of converting going on in the pen, and to Wahabalism no less.

[Mears]

You've got that right.

When I was in Spain I didn't see any Spanish that remotely resembled the Hispanics that live in my area.They have more Aztec and Mayan blodd than Spanish blood.

[StriperSniper]

Many of these women are trying to get away from the "Maybelline slavery" created by the American culture. "Like many women, Latinas are tired of being viewed as sex objects.

Why do I keep thinking about a Dice Clay nursery rhyme?

;-)

[IronJack]

Spain was ruled by Muslim rulers for over 700 years.

If longevity is the sole measure of success, Spain has been ruled by Christians for at least as long, and I daresay has prospered more under their rule than under the Moors'.

Put on a pedestal and hidden under a burqua....
