Born Steven Demetre on July 21 1947, his father was a Greek Cypriot and his mother was Swedish, but for some reason they decided to send him to a Roman Catholic school. He thought that was the first steps of his life. Born Steven Demetre Georgiou, he brought up Greek Orthodox, so didn’t take part in the religious rituals at school; you could say it meant he started out life as an observer.
Steven Demetre’s family weren’t at all strict, but they did want him to have a good moral grounding I think this is their reasons for sending him to a Catholic school. he learned about good and bad, and about morality in general.
Ironically, considering he has now converted to Islam and he now called Yusuf Islam, his upbringing was very anti-Muslim. Essentially, the Greeks and Turks were and still enemies, so he adopted the stance of his Greek Cypriot father and hated everything about the Turks, including their religion the Islam.
