    I have been considering taking the formal step of ‘converting’ to Islam and discussing this with my husband, who is Catholic (non-practicing). I learned about and studied Islam in college. My mother (Catholic) told us at a young age that rather than forcing a religion on us, she would allow us to find our own faith. After experiencing several Christian denominations, and later, in college, other faiths, I somehow felt a kinship with Islam. I later visited Jordan and lived with a Muslim host family for a few months. For the last 10 years or so, I have been something of a ‘closet’ Muslim – meaning I follow the faith and belive in it, but I do not go to Mosque or announce myself as a Muslim. It was never very important to me to declare myself to the world. However, now that my husband and I are ready to have a baby, we are discussing what faith our child should have and how to make our different faiths workable with children involved.
