Lauren Booth, sister-in-law to Tony Blair and journalist – or shrill harridan – for the Islam Channel has decided to become a Muslim. She is not known for accuracy in her reporting, is the recipient o
f the Dishonest Reporter of 2008 Award and is creating great anticipation as millions wait for her to don a full body burka and finally keep quiet.
From here:
Tony Blair’s sister-in-law has converted to Islam after having a ‘holy experience’ in Iran.
Broadcaster and journalist Lauren Booth, 43 – Cherie Blair’s half-sister – said she now wears a hijab head covering whenever she leaves her home, prays five times a day and visits her local mosque ‘when I can’.
She decided to become a Muslim six weeks ago after visiting the shrine of Fatima al-Masumeh in the city of Qom.
‘It was a Tuesday evening and I sat down and felt this shot of spiritual morphine, just absolute bliss and joy,’ she told The Mail on Sunday.
When she returned to Britain, she decided to convert immediately.
‘Now I don’t eat pork and I read the Koran every day. I’m on page 60.
I wonder if she’s said anything about what she thinks it might be like when she’s had another experience and decided to become an ex-Muslim … Matbe the fawning press people have not thought to ask her.
What struck me is that she converted before she had read the Koran. Not the smartest thing in the world to do.
God bless her! While on one side media and haters of Islam are saying that Islam betrayes women, on other side among converters to Islam in fact ARE women. I guess they wouldn’t jump in fire contiously. 🙂 It’s only the proff of true religion and that true comes out and stays on top no matter what.
I’d take you more seriously if you took the time to learn to spell….
