When it comes to islam, there's only 2 choices.
Either you join islam and die eternally or you reject islam and die once.
Which do you prefer?

You are missing a few things. The appellation "people of the book" allowed Christians and Jews a certain toleration within Islamic countries, albeit they were taxed. There are probably not that many Christians around anyway, you know, true believers; people who actually know Christ's teachings. Come persecution, many will likely fall away. No one knows whether he or she might perservere in the face of terrible threats. The Palm of Martyrdom is a grace given by God. Jesus, Himself, asks in Luke's Gospel: "will there be any faith when the son of man comes?"

Asalamu Aleikom, Personally I think when you put too many non-necessary standards when it comes to marraige, you most likely will not find what you're looking for. I know what you mean about reverts being so devoted, and I agree it's true most of the time because they went through a life without Islam and when they finally found truth, they hold on to it as if they have found gold. Thats one reason why the Sahabah were such great Muslims, because they were once wrong-doers but were led to the true path and remained devoted to it. BUT, that doesnt mean that women who have always been Muslim are not devoted as well. There are many great Muslim women who have been practicing their whole lives. Actually, there are many people who are just Muslim "by name", but they dont practice the religion. Then one day they wake up and start practicing it properly, so even those women are considered to be "reverts". For example, someone who doesnt pray is considered to be like a Kafir. Once they start praying, thats when they revert back to Islam. The odds are that when people go through a difficult stage in their life it makes them a better Muslim and more devoted to Allah. So it's mainly about her experience rather than the fact that she is a new Muslim. You could be happy with any Muslim girl from another culture as well, the important thing is that you find one who practices her religion well right now. Just like the Prophet (saws) recommended. Even though you were born and raised in a Muslim family, you DID choose Islam. Your parents can only raise you and encourage you in one direction, but at the end, its your choice. There are people who deviate away from their religion and not choose to follow it when they grow older. But each one make their own choices, and elhamdulillah you chose Islam and you should be happy about that. Choosing Islam means you fully accept it into your heart. I wouldn't stress too much about finding that perfect someone that you dream of, your soulmate was already written for you since before you were born and you'll be together when Allah pleases. Just look at how she is with her deen and inshallah khair :) "A woman is married for four reasons: for her wealth, for her fame, for her beauty and for her religion. So marry one for her religion and you will win." [Bukhari & Muslim]

Well, since I wouldn't be converting FROM Islam, I'm safe. I'm an atheist and I will defy any religion that becomes too powerful in the world. I can assure you that Christian domination is no picnic either. It was called the Dark Ages.

There are Christians and churches in Muslims countries, too, except Saudi Arabia. I've seen churches over in Musul Iraq. The Muslims as I could see left them alone. They basically left each other alone. Oh and by the way did you ever know that there is no difference between and Arab Christian woman and her Muslim counter part; besides the fact the Arab Christian woman does not cover her head, she also obeys her husband.

Praise God I submitted to Islam a year ago! I went to Islamic school in the middle east (UAE) and all i can say is that you are very misinformed. Have u ever read Surah al-Kaffirrun? It clearly states that each to his own religion. Also I cant wait to return to the Islamic country of the United Arab Emirates becuz its waaay safer there! (Am in Canada right now visiting family). Barely any crime in this great country. Men caught for rapes are punished with death, stealers are punished accordingly and OH MY GOD GUESS WHAT: Christians are allowed to practice there and they can even celebrate Christmas! Amazing! But you already knew this, didnt you;) heheheheh this is TRUE Islam

you "Muslims" miss everything of value and importance you must have schooled in the dark ages according to your barbaric and ignorant beliefs . if cannibalism becomes the leading faith in the world we would be almost as bad off.Just why is the world mostly retarded in this day and age of communication and knowledge? very well done, hope you dismiss other false religions as well.
peace out
