Catholic movie star is thinking about changing faith

HOLLYWOOD star Liam Neeson is considering giving up his Catholic belief and becoming a Muslim.
The actor, 59, admitted Islamic prayer "got into his spirit" while filming in Turkish city Istanbul.

He said: "The Call to Prayer happens five times a day and for the first week it drives you crazy, and then it just gets into your spirit and it's the most beautiful, beautiful thing.

"There are 4,000 mosques in the city. Some are just stunning and it really makes me think about becoming a Muslim."

Liam was raised in Northern Ireland as a devout Catholic and altar boy and was named after the local priest.

But the star — whose wife Natasha Richardson died aged 45 in a skiing accident in 2009 — has spoken about challenges to his faith.

He said: "I was reared a Catholic but I think every day we ask ourselves, not consciously, what are we doing on this planet? What's it all about?

"I'm constantly reading books on God or the absence of God and atheism."

Liam was criticised in 2010 after claiming Narnia lion Aslan — voiced by him in the movies — is not based on Christ as CS Lewis had claimed but in fact all spiritual leaders including Mohammed.

His latest film The Grey, about an oil drilling team who crash in freezing Alaska, is released in the UK on Friday.

Why? I've heard that the biggest boozers and wh*remongers in London are Saudi Princes, presumably under the belief that what happens in London stays in London.

Why is he contemplating about becoming a Muslim? I think he should have gone for it, but he has not changed yet. Anyone is free to chose the religion of his choice so I ask him why is he contemplating on becoming a Muslim. Mr Neely You dont need to think about this at all. Just do it, if you have enough reasons to be converted.

He said Its because of Muslim devotion to prayer in Turkey which makes him "still thinking" maybe to become a Muslim. Aside from concurrent prayers in the 4100 mosques in the city of istanbul,  Liam Neeson has not got enough reasons and he is saying "i may become a muslim". I think he should keep quiet and covert to any religion he likes. Mr. Liam Neeson, nobody will beat you for what you believe.Will you change your mind if you eventually leave Turkey to your country?

As for me I dont hold to any religion, I hold to the salvation of Christ Jesus that has made me known my right from my left and free from immorality and religions laws and sin.
