Why ARE so many modern British career women converting to Islam?

People instinctively know there is a God of some sorts. Career women are have inquisitive minds, so they are also seeking truth. They learn there is emptyness in debuachery. They also want structure from a faith. The Church of England has been saying "believe what you feel like" for the last several decades.

Muslims are aggressive in prostalytizing. When learning about Islam, these women hear about all good things. Of course, some women who marry Muslims get a rude awakening into the finer points of their new subservient role.

People are also converting to Catholicism, because the Catholic Church still stands for things and resists pressure from secularists to modify their belief system.
