I am talking about the war going here in Yahoo Answers, being fought by Internet users.
Who do you think is winning right now?
Muslims ? Christians with new testimony or Christians with Old testimony ?
Or, those who are non-Muslim, non-Christians by being entertained with this war? I mean Hindus and Zews and Buddhas?

Nobody, er,uh, I mean Everybody, (myself included). It's not that any group is winning anything, but every person is winning (in his own mind.) Was anyone's mind ever changed by anything said here on a subject on which they already had a firm opinion? I doubt that anyone is here with the intention of being swayed very far, but only to have their own opinions validated by a favorable consensus of others. Baited questions, stupid provoking answers, arrogant belivers who call atheists and others evil, arrogant atheists who call believers gullible and ignorant - all these things help to convince everyone that the opponent is a juvenile moral moron. All that ever really seems to happen in a setting like this is that everyone goes away thinking he's a winner, as much or more closed minded and set in his own beliefs that he was before. Most people are totally blind to their own ignorance and ungracious manners but seem to 20/20 vision for the faults of others.
I'm not above it myself and have to fight the urge to not to give a "Best Answer" vote to a well stated answer that I disagree with. Has anyone else caught themselves doing that?
Why do I or anyone even bother? All it does is make us crazier. I think I'm going to get out here for awhile and get a little peace and quiet away from the rest of the Yahoos!!!

Seriously, There is no way any one religion can 'win' in this Y. Q/A forum. Religion can only be reasoned with an open discussion where there is interaction back and forth.
Here, anyone can say something even if it has no bearing on the subject.
We are just curious to know what others think, because we mostly ask question we already have an idea what the answer is. Honestly, can you deny that?

christians, moslems, jews, no-one wins...
but christianity, judaism, and islam surely is winning.. because it is in the face of opposition that the religious fervour gets strengthened. that is why these wars have been raging for centuries in one form or the other. because it is vital for the religions to be sensational to find their space in man's priorities.
this is where peaceful religions like buddhism and to an extent hinduism is losing out...

The war will rage on for ages. most of the people on YA do not understand religion at all, they mostly think all religions are good. Thats why they are called "lost".

Exactly what maveriction said, only it is the people who follow these faiths but don't truly understand them that create wars

Well, God wins my heart, but loses another. So it's tie--1-1 Easy as that.
God Bless!!

The arms dealers are winning. Everyone else, no matter their theistic philosophy, is losing.
