DO you tihnk that it is odd that islam is this world's fastest growing religion?

Question

A friend told me of an odd phenomenon in Europe recently. She told me that she watched a news-program that told about how in the 1970's, in Europe, a lot of people quit religion all together and became atheists. And now that they've had children and they're children are grown these Children, having been raised atheist and having never combated the ignorance of religion first hand, are now actively seeking it out. And not in the typically spoonfed Christian form either, rather, they're all converting to Islam. It's quite an interesting, and personally disturbing social phenomenon to me. Not because it's Islamic faith that these sheeple are reaching out for, but that they are reaching out for religion in general. The only silver linings I can see to all of this is that, well, hey, at least it's not Christianity that's becoming their moralistic, metaphysical, and mortal crutch and it also means that there is a fresh new crop of gullible people out there 4 me 2 manipulate, yey!!!

Answer 1

If I start a religion this second and and add you to it I have just doubled the membership of my religion.
If I tell the the world I have the worlds fastest growing religion I have just mixed the truth with a lie.
Chrisitaianity has almost double the membership of Islam and is increaing in actual numbers faster than Islam but Islam is growing at a faster percentage because it is half the size of Christianity.
Don't be misled by these things. Truth is not measured by numbers if it were Christians would definitly have the truth.

Christianity: 2.1 billion
Islam: 1.3 billion
Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist: 1.1 billion
Hinduism: 900 million
Chinese traditional religion: 394 million
Buddhism: 376 million
primal-indigenous: 300 million
African Traditional & Diasporic: 100 million
Sikhism: 23 million
Juche: 19 million
Spiritism: 15 million
Judaism: 14 million
Baha'i: 7 million
Jainism: 4.2 million
Shinto: 4 million
Cao Dai: 4 million
Zoroastrianism: 2.6 million
Tenrikyo: 2 million
Neo-Paganism: 1 million
Unitarian-Universalism: 800 thousand
Rastafarianism: 600 thousand
Scientology: 500 thousand

Answer 2

Christianity may be doubled than Islam, but are all christians have the knowledge and quality of being a christian? Where do christians stand if you only attend church once a week but NEVER apply any of its teachings on Bible the next 6 days?

No use of having large quantity of christians but the quality?

Answer 3

Ah...that ole time religion...that's good enough for me.

What was Adam's religion? OBEY GOD. In Arabic, that is called Islam. Islam is one of the few religions that make no distinctions among the Prophets of God. All of God's Prophets are accepted in Islam. Islam does not pick and choose. Religious infants do, and this include the maniacs that blow stuff up...whether they are from Northern Ireland or Northern Iraq.....~~~~~W

Answer 4

in case you connect the religion I in simple terms invented, Woltism, it quite is going to likely be the quickest-becoming faith in usa having doubled in length in in simple terms the time it took you to connect me. In any journey Sikhism and Buddhism are the two becoming swifter than Islam in usa. worldwide, Islam get under a million converts each and each 3 hundred and sixty 5 days, Christianity gets 2 million. needless to say, it quite is not sparkling the way you diploma how briskly a faith is becoming. Is it genuinely the style of individuals? Is it the proportion growth? Do you count quantity people born into that faith or do you advise converts? How do you count quantity people who circulate from one u . s . a . to a distinctive? replace: Do you rather no longer comprehend why your references are not convincing? Your references are just to people repeating your declare. a functional reference could recent *information* to help your declare. None of those rates, to illustrate, say no remember if by applying "becoming" you advise in share words or absolute words. It in simple terms feels like fairly some people repeating them comparable fantasy. How approximately quoting somebody who stated "Islam is the quickest becoming faith considering the fact it quite is becoming fee fee X, and Y, the 2nd-quickest faith is in simple terms becoming at fee Z". *That* could be a reference that could persuade somebody. (needless to say, no such reference exists because of the fact the declare is fake.)

Answer 5

Any religion is 'the fastest growing' if you report the statistics appropriately. If you look at reasonable definitions of growth rate, you will see that Islam is growing pretty much exclusively by childbirth to Muslim parents, and by conversion of women who marry Muslim men.

Answer 6

Answer 7
