so, what was meant upthread about him "converting"? I guess that's what threw me. I have uncles who believe that stealth muslimcrap and it drives me nuts.

I believe it is against the laws of Islam for a faithful Muslim to change religions.

I think the converting stuff (it's come up a few times in this thread I think) is just evidence of how effectively the crazies have muddied the waters, you know?

Why non-Muslims are beliving laws of Islam, however, I could not tell you.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Well, he did formally convert from mushy agnostic to Church of Christ--though the whole "driven by a passion for social justice" thing probably doesn't make his conversion any more palatable to the crazies.

Keep breathing!
Not just a faithful Muslim isn't supposed to convert - it's any Muslim, defined as one born to a Muslim father. Yes, similar to Judaism saying you're Jewish if your mother is. So the issue may not be does Obama think he's a Muslim, but does Osama think Obama's an apostate?
Also, if you think custody fights around here are awful, imagine the kid in Israel whose mom is Jewish and whose dad is Muslim when those two break up.

Aimee, I'm so sorry that your co-worker has to deal with all of this.
I'm finally home and my wallet was happily waiting for me on the kitchen table.

I doubt she'd be thrilled to know that a co-worker's invisible friend is compassion-stalking her.I love "compassion-stalking."
I have been teaching all day. Now I am sitting around in a tie waiting for the dress rehearsal of the student one-acts. (It's opposite day here at school. Normally we are the [School Name] School for Girls. Today we are the [School Name] School for Boys. We're pretty much all in drag, except for my two baby goths, who showed up wearing hot pink and rainbows. I nearly peed myself.)
