Islam is increasing fastest because of births, but you get a lot more converts to Christianity. The conversion rate to Islam isn't that massive, and about 10% of the UK Muslim population is thought to have become (carefully) apostate, with a lot of Muslims converting to Christianity, especially in Africa. Depends how you define it really. Also, 75% of 'new' Muslims leave inside of a year.

According to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the World Christian Database as of 2007 estimated the six fastest growing religions of the world to be Islam (1.84%), the Bahá'í Faith (1.7%), Sikhism (1.62%), Jainism (1.57%), Hinduism (1.52%), and Christianity (1.32%). High birth rates were cited as the reason for the growth.[12].

It's actually Islam. It's the fastest growing religion in the world and it's the second largest religion in the world, only second to Christianity.

unfortunatly islam, i'm glad the turkish army will never allow an islamic govt. to be formed in Turkey. islam will probably be the cause of a nuclear exchange sooner or later.., especially if you've got a fundy in the white house cos islam and fundy christianity are as bad as each other.

What does 'growth' matter to a faithful?
A believer is a believer - has Faith - and accepts TRUTH.
There's nothing to brag about... what's you point here?
In case if I ask you SO WHAT? (I am a Muslim myself)
Moreover, you are over possessed with something that is short lived & it reflects your sickness!

In % terms - Pastafarianism or Wicca
In number of People - Islam ( Interestingly the growth in an absence of religion outstrips Islam in the number of people. )

Islam, because Muslims breed like rabbits and they are threatened with death if they want to convert to another religion.
And they are not allowed to marry outside their faith and bring their kids up in any other way.

That would really depend of what flavor of propaganda you're interested in.
Statistics lie. And, people who falsely assert things that just aren't true are...well...uh..."not telling the truth".
Yours is a "frequently asked question" about islam. And it's every single time wrong.
