IT IS A CULT. Only a cult would be bragging about how many followers they've attained. See, when it's about how many followers they have worldwide and how fast it's growing, they include the so hypothesized 10% of "bad" terroristic, extremist Muslims. But when you put them on the spot about them, they don't include them in "their" congregation. Whatever fits their whim, nothing said by too many Muslims here is FACT.

Hi,
Islam's said christian and jews jealous cause they growing fast. this is mostly came from their own perception that really thinking of christian a lot. they really care about christian I guess. so christian already have a fans... who really care christian grow or not. No need to take it so personal, just take as a gift that someone cares about us and our existance...
Cheers !!

you've showed indifference about the growth of a religion then why should you care about a certain religious group's statements.
simply : Why should you ask a question If you don't really care to get an answer?

u see lets look at this in another way.. lets say u saw an american car blow up in the middle ov the street..would u hate all american cars.. or could it be not the american cars fault..basikly u wouldnt hate all american cars..cos theirs afew bad one's.yet theirs allot ov gd one's..
same thing happend with islam..its like people see their media stations sayin its all the muslims fault..when its a few people who are extremist.. with logical reason..(yet they take the ellogical step in solvin the problim)
so go read up about islam..and learn about its heratige and its values..and many other things.. then comment on how people are joining it..or how its growin

I care about my own religion, and what I believe in.
Whatever they believe in, I respect without really having to agree with them.
I guess its the people who are getting silly and childish, not the religion.

Unfortunately, the statements are true. Islam is the fastest growing religion and over 1/5 of the planet is now Muslim. It will only be a matter of time before they kill us all.

Why do religious leaders of any religion say anything? None of them are prophets who speak for God and few recognize any prophets who spoke for God.
Religion is their business and their claims, true or not, are paid advertisements for the god of this world.

Islam is growing in the US at a frightening rate. Especially among young disaffected men.
