What are the motives of recruiters of Islam- response to Sandy Klaus

Sandy: You brought up a very good point. Islam, Conversions, and Obsessions. I do think it is an obsession with some in Islam to bring as many followers to their side as possible. This is not about free will, but domination, or else.

Faith is total belief in one's God, and freedom of choice which God has given us all. I really get disturbed when I feel, that someone elses beliefs are forced upon me. Then there is all this banta, why we of other faiths are so wrong, when we have scripture to prove we are right.

I wonder sometimes if this recruitment of Islam isn't about praisr and glory to whoever brings souls to Islam, not necessarily about the peace, and joy, of it. Many feel like they are being attacked and forced to believe in a religion that preaches peace, and demostrates violence at the same time, even to innocent people and children. My knowledge is strong of the bible, and the real Prince of Peace, Jesus.

Thanks, Anne A.
