"I used to be a Christian. But I converted to Islam. It wasn't because I'm a Muslim, but because I am going to die. I need to know that somebody is taking care of my children. Muslim boarding schools are free. Christian schools cost money. I am poor. I have no money. At least someone is taking care of my children. My husband is dead. What can I do? I have no other alternative."

Doesn't Jesus tell us to care for the widows and orphans? I wonder when christians will actually start doing that.
