I'M a muslim and ofcourse i think that islam(meaning peace and surrender to God/Allah)is the right religion but i will answer you honestly for your question as you dont think i'm telling you that because i'm a muslim.micheal jackson converted to islam (i think)because he wants to search for new things and is bored with his life style(like madonna whome some people say that she converted to judaism)it can also be because his muslim brother convinced him that islam is the right religion.black people who lived through harsh racism in the fifties and 60's(malcolm x and mohammed ali)converted to islam because they thought that christianity is the religion of white people who slaved them.at first they thougt that islam is only for blacks until malcomx went for Haj(pilgrimage to Makka) where he saw each and every race there ......from then he became a true muslim.but i wont lie to you many people converted to islam because they found the answers to their questions in this true great religion..........Peace brother!

Done what for nothing?
There is a greater love by far. It is the Lord of Jesus Christ that gave everything He had for all of you. All Jesus asks is that you accept His free gift. what mercy and grace. He died for everyone of us. Not so we could try to climb up another way but to humble ourselves before a holy God that gave His very best for you and I. Many have of us in America have heard this over and over but when will we deal with the reality that "This truly was the Son of God" Have we become so callous that we don't know true love anymore???
1Ki 18:21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD [be] God, follow him: but if Baal, [then] follow him. And the people answered him not a word.

well, coltrane was a drug addict, and michael jackson..... lets just say he doesnt seem to be the most stable guy there ever was.
but, i think that all faith is good when you're not forcing it on someone. if you can find a spiritual connection with something and find a way to understand something greater than you are, more power to you. i think if we all spent more time trying to be good ppl on a day to day basis (which is something all religions teach), then we'd all be better off, rather than worrying about who's "right" or "wrong" when it comes to matters of faith.

I haven't checked all the names on your list, but they appear to be wealthy African Americans. This segment of society is often viewed with jealousy and hatred in the US by its primarily unsuccessful, white, Christian population. Islam is a "brown" religion and wealthy blacks might gravitate towards it to find the acceptance and peace that mainstream America refuses to give them.

Are you kidding, if you surrender your soul to another God, you are surrendering to satan, THOU SHALL HAVE NO FALSE IDOLS!
People have claimed false prophets throughout the ages, but the BIBLE tell us to beware of these, as eve with the serpent.
Muslims and such will not take Gods Kingdom away, It is Gods Kingdom.

Sorry but I don't want to grow up to be like Michael Jackson or these other guys.
I would rather be like Billy Graham.

No offense, but your list is really a bag of mixed nuts.

These people mean nothing to me.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
