I can’t off the top of my head.

I wonder if this Obama kneepadder knows that Obama is Swahili for Osama.

Are you aware that there are millions of Christian Arabs?

With a good chunk of them living in the Middle East, is it surprising that many would have names otherwise associated with Islam?

“Name one christian with a muslim name?”

To answer your question, at least indirectly, over six million African Muslims convert to Christianity this year. This was reported by no less of an authority than “Al Jazeerah”!?!?!?

I do not vouch for these figures, but a cursory investigation of the subject via Google was enough to convince me that there are many folks, born with Muslim names, that are now Christians. I would suppose most retain their birth names.

My belief is that this is a positive movement. What’s your feeling on it?
