Philip Jenkins of Penn State has this question as his main academic focus and TOTALLY disagrees with youLets have your opinions on this.
Why is Islam the fastest growing religion in the USA today?
Its also the fastest growing religion in the world today too. And im sure some of you will say thats because of intimation.
But no one is forcing anyone here in America to convert so enplane it will you?
". By the middle of this century, there will be three billion Christians in the world -- one and a half times the number of Muslims. In fact, by 2050 there will be nearly as many Pentecostal Christians in the world as there are Muslims today."
Islam RETAINS by murder and ostracism what Christianity loses by simply walking out the door.
You forget what Pope Benedict said:
It is true that in lands where the LOGOS and Natural Law are dim, it is harder for Christianity to get a foothold.
But the liberal hypocrisy about Freedom of Religion (US Constitution, UN Declaration of Human Rights, etc) will be a major decider.
True freedom of conscience will destroy Islam. Look at the recent conversion of Aayan Hirshi Ali
Pope Benedict, quoting someone
spreading the faith through violence is something unreasonable. Violence is incompatible with the nature of God and the nature of the soul. "God", he says, "is not pleased by blood - and not acting reasonably (σὺν λόγω) is contrary to God's nature. Faith is born of the soul, not the body. Whoever would lead someone to faith needs the ability to speak well and to reason properly, without violence and threats... To convince a reasonable soul, one does not need a strong arm, or weapons of any kind, or any other means of threatening a person with death...".
