you would be muslim most likely? Yes or No?
Also do you feel 'lucky' that the majority of you happened to born in a certain region or country that just so happened to have chosen the 'one only god'?
Lasty do you feel sorry for all the other religions as they are going to hell and have got it so wrong as they weren't as 'lucky' to be born where you were for the most part?

I would be Muslim and I think Islam reflects a real experience of God from a different perspective. I was lucky to be born here for this life, I have a lot of liberty and opportunity I wouldn't have had I been born in most of Islam. As for the next world, I'm conflicted. On the one hand, Islam's legalistic focus makes it harder, I think, to cut through to the core of loving others as oneself. On the other hand, secular Western obsessions with wealth and material things makes it harder to do so. All in all, though, I like being Christian and American.

It doesn't matter where you are born. You can easily be born in a certain country and brought up under the major religion of that country. If God chooses you, you will be found.
John 10:27 says "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me." Our human brains can't see beyond our house, our street, our city, our town, our state, our country.....God is above all of it, above all of us. A mere matter of where we live is not strong enough reason to stop a person from hearing the gospel if that's what God wants to happen. There are Christain missionaries all over the world for a reason. Many lose there lives everyday to spread the Gospel, but before they die who knows whose lives they have changed.
God's reach, mercy, sovernity, and power it's just to hard for a human mind to understand, but He is the Master Potter. Romans 9: 20 says "But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? "Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, 'Why did you make me like this?' Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use?"
So it doesn't matter where you live, or how long you live your life as a Muslim, Hindu or whatever religion. If God has choosen you as the "clay" to be molded for Him, it's going to happen eventully. Guaranteed.

Your key-word grew to become into 'maximum' no longer 'all'. Yep it is real. it is tied up with custom, values and honour. Islam is growing to be with the aid of intense delivery expenses and new converts international are few. numerous everybody is likewise leaving Islam some are loose gain this finding on the place they stay others plan for years in the previous they pass away. Agree. Muslims are Muslims because of the fact their mothers and fathers are Muslims. maximum Christians are Christians because of the fact their mothers and fathers are Christians. although such as you in addition to could defined, Muslims are extra probably to no longer have a option to pass away Islam than a Christian. Christians in maximum situations are given extra decision, freedom to p.c. later in existence than Muslims.

You're right.
Most people believe the same things that their parents believe in - especially when it comes to politics and religion. If you offer an opinion that is different from the beliefs of a person who is very religious, that person will usually not listen to you because they believe that they are right and everyone else (who does not agree with them) is wrong!
In fact, having blind faith is actually considered a VIRTUE by most christians :)

Yes I would start out as a muslim or another religion....but that does not mean I have to stay one....
the gospel is being preached to all the nations, and people have the information to make a choice.
yes, I am very blessed to be born into a christian family.....but this also puts more responsibility on me to present the gospel to those who do not have it yet.
