my conversion to christianity

Growing up in mecca, i felt like the most religious muslim ever, but as i grew up i began to notice a lot of errors in my faith, for example i asked my local imam(muslim priest) that if islam is a religion of peace, why does mohammed command us to kill, instead of directly aswering my question, he tells me about how christians and jews are bad and islam is good.

I have had many problems with my faith but feared death if i spoke about it. when i moved to canada , it completely opened my mind when i learned about catholism. I embraced it and have felt more alive and peaceful than i have ever been, i now live my life embracing Jesus christ as my saviour. I now remember all the lies islamic schools told me about christians, about how they worship 3 different gods, and so on, islam is the true lie, and i will spend my life helping my arab brothers find the true path to christ.
