I have a friend that used to be muslim. He was the nicest guy, and would probably be my best friend, or close to it. I first met him at the beginning of high school (about 4 years ago) and when he found out that I was a Christian, he didn't mind at all.
Although he was only muslim becasue his family were pressuring him to be so (so more out of tradition) he still "didn't want to convert" or at least was fine where he was.
A few years later I invited him along to my youtgroup, and soon after that he became a Christian, along with a lot of my other friends (at a Christian convention). He later got baptised and then confirmed, and is one of the strongest Christians in their faith I know.

I don't know what lots of Americans feel about muslims, but I hear it's a touchy subject by lots, and it seems (from what I've heard) that lots of Americans hate muslims, or Arabs.
What's the real story over there?

Some of the nicest people are Christians (hopefully). And some of the nicest people are also not Christians. Another best friend is an Athiest - and he is nicer than some of my Christian friends!

yes there's some hate, but that's not all of us, I have talked to muslim store owners from time to time, and i even have seen some muslim-americans in the u.s. army. I have no problems with them at all, but i'm also very aware of gabe and sanitarium used to say

I have a few in my family, but I have one friend that I grew up with that is Muslim,and we are very, very close, we talk almost everyday, we will talk about everything except about our faiths, because we know that we will not agree. Now I despise Islam, but I love my friend June. And because he is Muslim I did not want to throw away our friendship that him and I have had since 1967.

have any of you witnessed to those muslim friends, i havent because i usually dont see the store owners all that much.

I usually don't witness to them, but they seem to be startled when the Holy Ghost is present in our lives a they can see it in us, and that certain joy that we have. That is witnessing right there. Case and point, my nephew was a Muslim, and he called me one day, and said that he does not want to be a Muslim anymore, and did not feel right, and he said part of the reason, was that he seen what God had done for me, no more drugs, no more alcohol, and no more skirt chasing, he saw a change that attracted him, something he never saw in Islam. Speaking of Islam I have a real gold Star of David with a cross in the middle of it, and people will ask me what does it mean, and I will tell them that Jesus came out of the linage of David that is why the cross is in the middle of it. Now last week this Muslim stopped me talking about the Star of David comes from one of the Egyptian underworld gods Seth, they always twist stuff, I got so mad I had to get away from him. I was so mad that I forgot to tell him about the Star and Cresent moon god that had 3 daughters and the 360 idles that was in their sacred Kabah, I use to love going toe to toe with them, but now only if they push me. In 1997 I did a very intense grueling study on Islam and the things that I found out, will make your head spin. Islam is completely false. When I first came to this board I think once or twice I posted my study, well some of it anyway. But if you want to know the truth about Islam, get the book by Robert Morey, The Islamic Invasion, and believe me, you won't be sorry, you will then know the truth, and the whole truth about Islam.

I have actively witnessed to at least 2 of my Muslim friends. One of them is going to church with me now, .. .. .... the other one wanted to but backed off in the last minute out of fear.

I have wittnessed to the muslim (now Christian) friend of mine I mentioned above, and that is a contributing factor to him now being Christian.

It's worth it, friends!
