Have you noticed something? These converts/ possible converts committed crimes when they were Christians. When they became better human beings, they embraced Islam.
It proves that Christianity failed to teach them the right path. Islam could"

What an asinine statement! One which could only come from an Islamic mind. These so called converts rejected Christianity for whatever reason and committed whatever crimes. It has nothing to do with Christianity. Christianity is not criminal as compared to Islam which has a lot of soul searching to be done. Islam is a primitive...ideology, that may be the reason why criminals find it so inviting. Christianity teaches respect and peace, not violence, as one can see every day all over the world. If one wants to be blind it one's prerogative.One sees the daily carnage & barbarity of Islam, with cries of "Allahu Akbar" where human beings are being stoned, hanged, slaughtered, burned & mutilated - so much for the "beauty" of Islam.

Let me quote what Dr Wafa Sultan said recently:

"It is a clash between civilization and backwardness, between the civilized and the primitive, between barbarity and rationality. It is a clash between human rights on the one hand and the violation of these rights on the other, between those who treat women like beasts and those who treat them like human beings.".
