Muslim Me



Morgan Spurluck (the guy who did "SuperSize Me") is someone I really admire. He has started a series of documentaries and this one was about being a muslim for a month. He got Dave Stacy to experience this; a religious Christian in my opinion but always thought a Muslim meant a man with a gun in his hand.

Of course, the experience was not easy for Dave. There were a lot of arguements, confusion, but as the days went by, he ended up building a friendship with the muslims.

Morgan took a stab at this documentary because he claimed that Americans don't hear good stories about Muslims after 9/11 and he thought this documentary would be a powerful one to change people's perspectives on Muslims.

Dave ends up going to Michigan in a city that is heavily populated with Muslims. As a matter of fact, it is the most populated city in the US with Muslims and Arabs.

The funniest part of the documentary is when Dave was shocked and taken back when he was told that the God Muslims worship is the same God that Christians worship.

Overall, the end results were very positive.

Thumbs up to Morgan for his work!
