Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world because of CONVERSION

I would just like to comment on the false information given by Moses Gbenu on how Islam is the fastest growing religion because of the birth rate in the middle east or asia, etc... This is not true, Islam is the fastest growing religion in the United States because of CONVERSION, not immigration. It is said that the new mosques being built in the United States over the last 2 years have 30% of people going to it as converts. In fact, according to Brittanica, Islam has the highest conversion rate in the world, so please get the facts straight friend.
Peace.
