That's good.
Not giving people religious freedom makes a mockery of the free choice God gave us. That's my view, anyway.

Do you still miss Croatia? How long have you been in the US?

I agree. I think it's partially because of all the tension that's been happening in that area for so long. People have become paranoid because of it, and they come to think that anything different coming into Croatia is a threat. In a way, I understand. But I've also heard things from Croats like "Stop the Islamization of Croatia! It's tearing our country apart!" And it makes me sad.

I've officially lived in the US my whole life, and I've never spent more than a month in Croatia, so I can't really say whether or not I miss it. Sometimes I do, just because I think the Croatian language is very beautiful, and the people there are usually much friendlier than a lot of people in the US, but my father refuses to ever go there for more than a short amount of time, and he only ever wants to go to certain cities. Again, it's primarily because of the violence in the past 15 or so years.

Heh, the troll two posts above.....I mean why bother? Its not even a very good film.

interestin story....at age 16............ for the first time u got me thinkin... it is more hard for convert then a muslim who is born in to it.. ur rite.............. actually ppl who convert r more religious ... then the one who were born in to it............................ but at the end we r alll muslims n god dont care wat color or race u from ... well salam wa 3lykom

I agree being a convert is hard, But Allah protects us Where ever we are and he is with you any time and any way. You choosed your way and you choosed the best way.

Good Luck brother...

Just think, us converts are in exactly like the people in muhammads (s.a.w) day, they were all just new converting just like us now.
wa salaam

And just dont worry about anything, gotta take baby steps bit by bit, my first lesson i got taught was sabar, patcience, and it does work trust me, my head used to be clouded with this that and the over, but then i just stopped, cleared my head, and become patcient and have left it to allah to gude me at my pace and ive never been happier or felt has close to him, and ive only been converted 4months. inshallah ill grow closer and closer. and has i said in another forum,
religion is about beliving in god, giving your will up to him, ignoring your ego and just pray and worship god how prophet muhamed(s.a.w) showed us. Like the saying, 'one drop when fallen into the ocen becomes nothing' forget our induvidualitys and become the ocean in gods love. all these arguements are pointless to the simplicity of you and your creator.
they were having alot of arguments on the other forum.
wa salaam
