George W Bush may be backed by Christian fundamentalists but in his home state of Texas, Islam is the latest big draw.
Eric was a Baptist preacher before he became a Muslim 14 years ago. Now he prays five times a day -- even in the middle of watching a football game. His wife, Karen, also a convert, is covered from head to toe in the traditional Muslim Clothes. Islam, says Eric, is everything I wanted Christianty to be. His mother has found it hard to come to terms with her son's conversion and believes he will return to the Christan faith says: Then he will be a dynamic preacher. Eric says: Maybe some day she'll embrace Islam. We hope and pray that she does.
