    It will save a lot of terror attacks if only police could maintain a database of all recent converts to islam

    OK - you are a cretin. Thanks for clarifying.

    Next, if...

    all people who do this [blowing up things and killing people] all [sic] muslim converts
    ... are you saying that Timothy McVeigh was a Muslim convert?

Looking for comfort I suppose. Their problems, like criminality as in this bloke's case, exist before the conversion.
      Having said that, the local Jehovah's Witness convert does limit himself to putting up a stand of leaflets at the train station on a Thursday morning.

        Most do fairly harmless things fortunately. Chap I shared a house with used to spend the entire morning every day reading the bible and making copious notes. He'd gone through a messy divorce and had a breakdown previously.

          I see this lot every morning without fail near Sheffield Uni.

          I do wonder if is there much job satisfaction standing there with pamphlet in hands?

          I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

            Is there is any evidence on this?

              Sure. The most zealous anti-smokers are ex-smokers.

                Maybe, like Cherie Blair's sister, they like the "look at me" kudos all that Islamic garb is going to buy you.
                There is not one Muslim culture and one Muslim denomination/sect.

                Therefore some people particularly men convert to marry, but I know off and met others who don't.

                The main reason for converting is due working out how to bring up any children.I know of divorced where one of the issues is how religious one partner was and forcing it on their children.

                  Currently away from the UK with almost no internet but had to reply to this thread after seeing who the killer was.

                  He was a black convert (as you already have discussed).

                  There are white converts fighting with ISIS and they are proportionally a much larger number than non-whites. Maybe the problem is because they are white/black rather than brown?

                  As for female converts, there are very large numbers of them just like there are with Christianity. The figure head for Muslims and Christians alike is Mary who wears something very similar to the hijab..... go figure fools. The real war that is going is one against religion and trying to cause division. Any of you working in major cities and having real Christian/Muslims friends will realise there is actually very little difference.

                    Why are we fools? There is interesting historic information out there about why women are veiled and it is nothing to do with religion.

                    And what is a "real" Christian? And what is a "real" Muslim? I know and am related to people who practice religions.

                      In many experience, most people who call themselves Muslim, Christian, whatever*, share that, aside from calling themselves Christians/Muslims etc., they really have very little knowledge of their purported faith. So you're right, for all practical purposes, there's very little difference between the nominal adherents to any religion. For them, it's the culture they've grown up with that is significant.
