Not just CNN. Fox’s Centanni (sp?—one of the two Fox employees who went through a mock-conversion to Islam after being kidnapped in Iraq) agreed that Allam’s public baptism might be provocative.
That's very interesting! I didn't know that - thanks for calling our attention to this fact.
I read the letter that Allam wrote and one thing he says is that in modern times the Church has actually not made enough of an effort to convert Muslims. He's absolutely right.
