"Well sorry dude. You're Catholic, confirmed and baptized. You have indelible mark on your soul. If I was you I wouldn't turn your back on Christ it sounds like someone needs to read the four last things again."

"Alhamdulillah, he's right. Peace begins within oneself, touches the family and neighbours, then society, and eventually encompasses the world."

"It is funny, how he found peace as a revert and then we that were born into Islam are still sourcing for peace."
dwardFitz55756 commented:
"Muslims are PEACEFUL? Can he hear himself? Tell that to the murdered Christians in Africa! Tell that to the MUSLIM-GANG- white indigenous children in my country of England. Islam is a TOTALITARIAN political system based upon subversion and then conquest. EUROPE AWAKE!!"
