He was rummaging through some old books in his library and came across Sheikh Ahmed Deedat's book, Crucifixion or Cruci-fiction? which shook his faith and radically changed his concept of God and his entire life.
What made a distinguished attorney, a proud Zulu by birth and a son of the African soil give up the Catholic Church in which he was raised in favour of Islam? This was a faith he was taught to be wary of.

Maybe he read the book and found out the truth. He obviously had doubts about Catholicism and that is what led him to read it in the first place. Read the book, It is very informative, it was one of the books that I read when I was considering conversion to Islam also. (I ultimately did convert) Another good website is www.islam101.com it has a lot of interesting stuff about Islam, science and the Bible.

Catholicism did no longer invent Islam, Muhammad invented it. He did come into touch with many Christians and Jews and become needless to say inspired via a mix of ideals from the Bible, the Talmud and gnosticism. yet Islam isn't something like Catholicism, the Quran genuinely contradicts lots of the Bible and the training of Jesus, it even denies that Jesus become crucified.

A moment of weakness.
He was a distinguished attorney, not a Religious Scholar.
There are many Catholics, Muslims, and Jews who are that by name only.
Some have always fallen for heretics.
Have you read the New Testament?
Peace!

He was not taught sufficiently about the Catholic Faith. Scripture also says--because they have left us-- is proof they were never with us to start with.

Well, one fairy tale's as good as another. The story doesn't shock me in the slightest.
