Faith value

Wow, what an article. I think I'm ready to convert after that one! While her professional accomplishments might, indeed, be 'impressive', why is her conversion to Islam and her 'rejection of her Catholic roots' equally 'impressive'? I doubt very much such a gushing account would ever be written about anyone 'rejecting his Muslim roots' and converting to another religion. Additionally, talk about 'changing people's negative impressions of Islam' while conveniently pretending there aren't many good, legitimate reasons for the public's mistrust is dishonest. Other religions are routinely raked over the coals for any of their members' outrageous behavior. Why does Islam deserve exemption from equal treatment, especially given the frequency and severity of said outrageous behaviour? Last, on the topic of how wonderful and inclusive an environment it is, I'd be curious to know the number of and advancement prospects of their gay employees, or indeed of all non-Muslim employees.
