This guy's story is very compelling, but I found the idea that "muslims needed him more than Catholics or Jews" smacking of the same boomer narcissism found in the previous dialogue. It seems like he came to Islam with a preset agenda to fix something wrong with it. I'd like to know a couple of things:
1. How have Muslim communities of long standing reacted to his work within Islam
2. Why does he insist on using the the name Stephen Schwartz, when it seems that most converts take on Arabic/Islamic names. Seems like a marketing issue.
