Why is this even news worthy? Who cares about her journey to her new faith,I wish her well you should be writing about the slaughter of Coptics and what we should be doing to help them survive!!!

MUSLIM'S REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT JESUS (YASHUA) IS THE SON OF GOD, THE MESSIAH, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR!! THE MUSLIMS WILL ADMIT THAT JESUS SITS ON THE RIGHT OF THE ALMIGHTY, AND IS ABOVE ALL THE PROPHETS INCLUDING MOHAMMED. NO HUMAN BEING CAN BE CLEANSED FROM ALL SIN AND GET TO HEAVEN EXCEPT THRU JESUS THE CHRIST.

Seano, I believe if she wishes to convert back to Christianity she could be stoned to death by the followers of the religion of peace.

Forgot to mention there are loads of books out there by former Muslims who left their religion and dared to write books warning others even though they would face death for doing so! Does that make them bigots??? Also there is speculation that Robert Spencer converted to Islam but then left (can't be confirmed) but if true I doubt this would make him a bigot! Leaving Islam: Apostates Speak Out by Ibn Warraq is a book about loads of former Muslims who dared to speak out.

My racist beliefs? When did I insult any race??? Islam is a religion not a race!!! Also alot of Arabs are Christian and rejected Islam back when people had no choice but to convert to this new religion as they couldn't afford to pay the tax that was forced upon them by their new Muslim rulers who used sharia law to get people to get non Muslim to covert or live in poverty or even worse face death! I take inspiraion from the Arabs that stayed strong and refused to convert to Islam. They also have a beautiful culture, language and history! Calling Robert Spencer a bigot just because he studied Islam and wrote a book critical about the religion does not make him a bigot! Does that also mean Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens are bigots because they studied religion and have wrote books critical of it???

Jetsnoone she did not abandon Jesus Islam accepts Jesus as a prophet from God. Mereflow shouting her ignorant uninformed bigoted opinion like a true crusader.A poster below quoting Spencer a known bigot making millions from his hate speech and sheep like "Republic" below in their racist beliefs suck it all up like vacuum cleaner.

The Truth About Muhammad: Founder of the World's Most Intolerant Religion by Robert Spencer. Every child and adult should read this book including are leaders that smile infront of the camera telling us Islam is a religion of peace as they try to score points with Muslim world.

Makes no sense. If you are aiming for a pure monotheistic faith, choose Judaism. Why go for the Islamic religion that is clearly a plagiarism of countless belief systems, such as Christianity, Judaism, Nestorianism, Arab paganism, and the Gnostic Gospels.
If Mohammed had been assigned a writing project, he would have been expelled from school for plagiarism. So sad to see her reject the great Lord who preached such radical equality messages like the "God Samaritan."

Cheryl has every right to follow any religious belief.Islam is based on the same old book as Christianity and Judaism with all its fire and brimstone.
