G'day Everyone.
I am a 30 yo woman from Melbourne Australia. I am a recent convert, just 4 weeks ago but have been curiously studying Islam for a few years now.
Many things have been building up to the point where i felt i could delay it no longer. The invasion of Lebanon and the continuing issue of western threat against the independance of Islamic countries. These issues worry me a great deal.
I grew up with an understanding that Judaism, Christianity and islam were closely connected religions. Although i went to church for many years i never felt that Jesus = God was a truth. Despite many debates with other church members that doctrine just never "sunk in" Islam makes perfect sense to me in so many ways.
I have enjoyed this site very much, watching the videos and reading the threads has been very informative. It has been good to read of other westerners converting, makes me feel less alone.
