Oliver Stone's son converts to Islam in Iran

US filmmaker Sean Stone, son of Oscar-winning director Oliver Stone, converted to Islam on Tuesday in Iran, where he is making a documentary, he told AFP. "The conversion to Islam is not abandoning Christianity or Judaism, which I was born with. It means I have accepted Mohammad and other prophets," he said in a brief telephone call from the central Iranian city of Isfahan, where he underwent the ceremony. Sean Stone's famous father is Jewish, while his mother is Christian. The 27-year-old filmmaker did not say why he converted. According to Iran's Fars news agency, Sean Stone had become a Shiite and had chosen to be known by the Muslim first name Ali. Sean/Ali Stone has acted in minor roles in several of his father's films, and has directed a handful of documentaries.

So the anti-American film director's son has officially become a Mohammedan. Let's see how well that turns out.

And opened the gates to hell with his ticket punched. It is either Jesus Christ or hell. He chose hell.

That statement maybe the most moronic thing I have ever read.

And now the award for the most completely idiotic statement ever uttered. And the winner is:

The conversion to Islam is not abandoning Christianity or Judaism...

"The conversion to Islam is not abandoning Christianity or Judaism..."

Doesn't that make him an infadel and therefore, a candidate for going headless?

It don't work that way, son.

Seems logical. Daddy converted to Communist in Cuba and son converts to Muslim in Iran. Keeping it in the same Axis of Evil, will keep the family close.

Next up - he’ll discover the prophet Joseph Smith and go full circle.

Just another Hollyweird attention addict.

Not too smart is he?

My understanding is that statement alone will get you beheaded in any Islamic paradise.

Since he was in Iran making a documentary (about how they’re great and we’re awful, no doubt) his conversion might be simply for the subject of the film. Of course, once he tries to back out, well...

Oliver Stone is Jewish? That means ali is of jewish descent ( I know it is matriarchal but that didn’t stop the nazis and I doubt it will stop the muslimes).

I guess that means ali will have to kill his father before beheading himself. Exit question: Who does he pay the jizya to avoid having to kill himself?

If you don’t believe in something, you’ll fall for anything.

Something libs who want to raise their kids without religion are always a little shocked about, when their kids grow up and adopt some very strange/nutty beliefs.

Should make for some interesting family get togethers in the future. Ollie might want to skip them when they coincide with islamic “holy days.”

I take it he has already been the L. Ron Hubbard route?

I hope he knows that once you become an Muzzie there is no turning back....try telling your new buddies that you aren’t turning your back on other faiths. This stupid kid is going to end up getting his head chopped off! (I think this was probably a stunt so he could film in Iran and be left alone...he is going to realize how serious it gets soon)

And I thought my family squabbled on Thanksgiving. LOL!

There’s a joke in here somewhere... “A Muslim, a Christian and a Jew walk into a dining room....”

Useful idiot like his father. A trip to Iran getting Potemkin treatment (ala father's Potemkin treatment in Cuba) and they're won over heart and soul:

One can only hope they gave him the gift of an Iranian passport, too.
Then the IRI will REALLY own him — whether he likes it or not.
