The growth of a religion has nothing to do with the truth.

...thats hardly what I call a "GROWING" religion. In fact Islam is shrinking by the numbers. These people "learned or not" have not learned TRUE ISLAM. they either converted with a motive (Perverts who want their 72 houris) ...I am neither convinced or threatened by these Small conversions. Even your muslim clerics are alarmed at the Increasing conversion rates in Africa. Africa is no longer a Muslim dominated continent, do you know that? ... Since when does
-Appealing to Numbers
-Appealing to Converts
-Appealing to the Quran
-Appealing by the Sword
-Appealing to Another Authority

This is the manner of which muslims try. All we have to do is read the Quran and the ACTIONS of the people who adhere to it to say that Islam is a backward religion of mindless prayer and shallow spirituality. ... there is no FREE will in islam. its a religion of Surrender, Slavery, and Justified Atrocities ... You haven't given me an argument but more bs!

Heres what I think of your "numbers" I do not care if 99% of the world converts to Islam (by will or by the sword) I would RATHER DIE than convert to a religion invented than ...call him my prophet. *this is what a TRUE martyr is* Remember what your muslim brothers did to that Nun after you rioted about what the pope said? You shot her in the back (All Muslims are complicit to the crimes of the co-religionists) and guess what she said as her dying words? "I FORGIVE YOU I FORGIVE YOU"

this shows the difference between Christians and Muslims. Christians are Morally superior to Muslims by any measure.
