So there!

Uh, that's false...

The only thing that keeps it from being an outright lie is you never seem to know exactly wth you're talking about.

Why would you claim that Muslims have no knowledge of Jesus? In point of fact, Jesus looms pretty large in the Muslims world as the next-to-last prophet (Muhammad is the last).

This is all over youtube. There are many videos where Muslims have some sort of "supernatural" intervention where they meet Jesus, and then they convert to Christianity. I am sceptical about these claims but I want to know your perspective on how these could be explained? In the videos many of the people cry and look very sincere so I have a hard time thinking they are just making everything up on purpose. I feel that they believe these interventions took place, whether they did in actual fact or not. How would someone with no knowledge of Jesus see Jesus if it was not real?

Why do I get the feeling that if we looked close enough, we'd find stories of Christians converting to Islam under very similar circumstances?

Hm. This is only going to work for really weak-ass farts.

I can just hear my wife now: "What the fuck is that? Are you burning toothpaste on the stove? Who does that?"
