I converted to Muslim about 5 years ago, right after 9/11. My husband and I both are and I have been at odds with some family members since then. Coming from Seventh Day Adventist, which I have found some interesting details about that cause for questioning, it is seen like an immediate path to hell. I disagree with the SDA faith and how it was founded, on a lie. How do you deal with family who you love dearly, when they treat you as if you are different just because of that? I think it is an over generalization because of the war that causes people to have opinions on things they have no knowledge of. I am an African American Muslim in America, along with many others of the fastest growing religion there is. I am firm on my beliefs and have to constantly argue it, I have the facts and yet they still refuse to listen, instead they ATTEMPT to fill my head with more lies that have facts to them that they are lies!! How hypocritical is that??
