I thought of exposing the subject of religion, not science or documentary, but only as a result of open and lively conversation among friends. Whether we like it or not, Islam and its practitioners are a curious subject for most Christians and beyond; launch Whether we like it or not but, knowledge about Muslims is too small, media and wrong or too distorted in most people.
