Apostate Islam versus Apostate Christianity - Which Fares

Reader comment on item: [Ex-Muslims:] The Challenge to Islam It Has Never Faced

Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Jun 17, 2022 at 12:59

Islam, in similar terms as the Messianic Christianity it continues seekin to replace, has found that in the ability to keep the rudiments of Islamic teachings, not all followers are able to maintain the same foundational adherency due to the same issues of human weaknesses; as many will allege, your belief is not strong enough in order to keep enough focus on keeping true and the stronger will take the weaker to task for their apostasy.
Islam has lost many to other belief systems and faiths for the inability to confirm issues of extenuating circumstances in which proofs are no longer enough to convince a weakened belief when other evidences are sufficient to undermine why a former belief cannot be sustained in the face of truth. Islam suffers this as much as does Christianity. Christianity does not suffer apostasy well either, but for differing causes: truth prevails when faith fails and apostate Christians are too filled with pride to admit they are in desparate need to repent; failing repentance, the Christian cause is left destitute. How does Islam fare in that?
