You're right that is the major problem. You believe I'm wrong, and I have faith I'm right..... -_-
But you presume to know me when you say I grew up with these beliefs.....I didn't.
Imma end it here.

Your nik indicates you (like me) grew up in a christian orientated culture. Whether you acknowledge it or not our beliefs are shaped by our environment.
Alhamdulillah, my mind was always turned towards seeking the God of Ibrahim and Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them all).
I never thought of JC as God. He always spoke about 'The Holy Unseen God of Israel' as his God too. At least that's how i always read it.
When the time in my life came for answers and thoughts of submission and repentance started to creep into my head, I heeded this and my long winding journey to Islam commenced;
<i>"But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you. In praying, do not babble like the pagans, who think that they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them. Your Father knows what you need before you ask him. "This is how you are to pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and do not subject us to the final test, but deliver us from the evil one."</i>
Over and over again i prayed and i vowed. Show me you're real and i'll obey. He did and I'm trying...real hard...'til my last breath ....God willing.
