Turkish TV gameshow looks to convert atheists | Entertainment | Reuters: " At first this article starts out like some crazy joke like Fr. Turner used to tell me: "ISTANBUL (Reuters) - What happens when you put a Muslim imam, a Christian priest, a rabbi and a Buddhist monk in a room with 10 atheists?"... or something crazy from the Holy Observer. But, no, it's real. "Turkish television station Kanal T hopes the answer is a ratings success as it prepares to launch a game show where spiritual guides from the four faiths will seek to convert a group of non-believers."Look at the prizes you can win! "The prize for converts will be a pilgrimage to a holy site of their chosen religion -- Mecca for Muslims, the Vatican for Christians, Jerusalem for Jews and Tibet for Buddhists."Apparently the show is struggling to get off the ground because they can't find a willing Imam. |
