There seem to be several threads where there is mention that Muslims are having visions of Jesus and converting to Christianity. My question is why doesn't Jesus show himself to Osama Bin Laden? After all, if there were a single Muslim that would probably be worth showing himself to I would imagine it would be Osama. Not only that, but since Osama is a Muslim it leaves little doubt in my mind that he does believe in Jesus just not as a son of god. It doesn't seem like it'd be a far cry for Jesus to show up in a dream or something of that nature and tell Osama to stop being such a terrorist and that he needs to convert to Christianity. Instead, it seems just random people are apparently having visions of Christ and converting. I guess it seems like there is a mix-up in priorities.
After all, since Osama still has a lot of influence with his ideology in the Middle East, doesn't it seem like him making a conversion would influence many other Muslims to make the same leap as well? Just a thought.
And how would Osama keep his power base then? His strain of medieval Islam is far more suited to his purposes of exerting power than the modern Christian views.
If you have a vision of a bearded man in white robes with sun rays around his head, wouldn't Osama assume it was Allah? or Mohamed? Who you dream up depends on what you believe.

That's part of what I was trying to get at. Muslims throughout the Middle East, according to some on this forum, are having visions of Jesus and converting to Christianity. I mean, if you really think about it, if Jesus really were the son of god, the guy who turned water into wine and walked on water, it doesn't seem like it'd be that hard for him to make it known to Osama that he was seeing Jesus and should convert.
Why not make it count? Why go around and covertly try and sway common people when you have a very horrible man who no doubtedly believes in God (and even Jesus to many extents)? Heck, that would be my first target if I were Jesus. I guess my point is that if Jesus is taking the time out of his busy schedule to appear to regular folks who are apparently believing in the wrong thing, you'd think that a man who preached so much peace and love might take the time out of his day to visit some of the bad guys...
