Christian-turned-Muslm vs Natural-Born Muslim

Y'know I gotta delete that 'i' in the Muslim part to get all the words in the title heading...

Inspired (is it the proper word for it?) from some...'messages' with Platao in the other thread, I thought I'd like to know there seems to be a little difference in tone of the practice or belief of a Christian who got converted into Muslim and a natural-born one.

Well, easily put logic, if a man who's so used to living like a Christian and then change a religion, it's probably a hard task to suddenly 'implement' one belief from another...specially when two of the most important books of these religions have a different sense of virtue practice.

why when one side quit, the other has to start it again ...

I second the emotions Alexa ... it's really getting annoying more and more ... Out of curiosity I opened an account in ILQ to check it out ...

Hero: Thanks for the reference to my name ;)

Now about being muslim by choice or born muslim, like i have stated here, if i marry my love, i'll convert to Islam because my love for her is superior to the hate that her familly could have for her for marrying a non muslim, besides that her country also offends her by calling her certain names just because she's going out with a foreigner?

Just to clarify, i ain't a christan but a monotheist, the same religion as Abraham and Mohamed. I do belive in God, but don't belive in elitism, meaning that some are favourites and all the others are wrong.

As someone stated already in this forum, some non muslim are better muslims than the ones that proclaim to be muslims, when i say non muslim i don't mean people that are christian turned muslim but ppl that aren't or never were muslims.

Like police officer stated on the other post, God loves us all no matter race, religion or social class.

Well...Heero, the way i see it, I dont feel there is a need to compare and contrast one person's belief with another's. Belief/faith is a personal thing and I dont understand why any one should judge,criticise or analyse anyone else's belief. Donno how it is about you.

At the end of our life our questions are simple: Did I live fully? Did I love well?

Allah (All glory & prais to him only) said in the Quaran, to tell the desbelivers "My religion is for me, your religion is for you".

More over the world exists with only one power. its GOD in English & Allah (All glory & prais to him only) in Arabic.

As MagicDrogan mentioned Islam is an "advancement". Yes Isalm indeed an "ADVANCEMENT" of the belivers in ONENESS. I am born Christian embraced Islam BY CHOICE and Performing my way of life for Allah.

But born musilms are BY CHANCE, out of them how many are living as a real muslim ??????????????????

But for some reasons, some people separate (or disallowed, is it?) the supposed-to-be references from their own understanding and practice...

Come on heero, if I'm not mistaken then Qur'an refers to both the Bible and the Torah, and becoming a Muslim means to "advance". You don't learn much new things, because the basic attitude towards God and life is the same.

It's ok, Alexa. You can ignore if you want. Easy.

I also got friends like these back home and I think I can see the 'hints'...and I have to voice out a bit to see if I'm right or wrong with the analyses...
