Wow... Dave Chappelle is Muslim?

(Listed under "C")

Maybe it's old news, but I just came across this now. He converted in '98.

"I don't normally talk about my religion publicly because I don't want people to associate me and my flaws with this beautiful thing. And I believe it is a beautiful religion if you learn it the right way. It's a lifelong effort. Your religion is your standard. Coming here I don't have the distractions of fame. It quiets the ego down. I'm interested in the kind of person I've got to become. I want to be well rounded and the industry is a place of extremes. I want to be well balanced. I've got to check my intentions, man."

Crazy story about the events surrounding the cancellation of his 3rd season.
