Libraries have run out of books on Islam and the Middle East… English translations of the Koran head the American best-seller list…
 
They are all opinions. Anyway, the prince of this world, they say, is Satan…Our citizenship is in heaven…Therefore, numbers do not really matter. It is written, “Enter by the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many there are who enter that way.” (Mathew 7:13)
 
You cannot steer people’s personal faith. Islam is now a part of western culture, wheither you like it or not. It’s not just for people in prison, or rock stars looking for a new thing. Some people just associate with Islam more than Christianity. That does for the other side of things too - 70% or so of Westerns are Christians, and although some don’t like that, it’s just the way it is. It’s a fact, it can’t be changed, and those people are entitled to follow their faith. Acts in the name of christianity have been responsible for some pretty fuc.ed up consequences in the last 100 years.
 
I’ve always said that the F word strengthens any argument. Impressive. :bowdown:

Recent acts in the name of Islam have been any better? Blowing up innocents to make a point in the name of Islam?

BTW, I totally agree with Seminarian X on your use of language on these forums. Are you a follower of Islam?
 
Many centuries ago, when Catholics used to kill others for not being Catholic, it too was the biggest and fastest growing religion.
 
Between the Christians being massacred and persescuted in Africa, Middle East and Indonesia,and the aggressive proselytizing going on in the Western world, appealing to disgruntled minority men who feel empowered by it, it would not surprise me if it was true.

It seems to be filling the spiritual vacuum caused by the rejection
(and annihilation) of Christianity.

Explain what you mean by “Catholics used to kill others for not being Catholic”. I know there has been killing and wars between Christians and against Muslims but it wasnt because they were not Catholic was it? It was because of other reasons. Isnt that what the radical Muslims are doing now to an extent aswell?! And the western world despises that.

Are you talking about the Crusades? Because if you are that didnt begin because they wanted to forcefully convert Muslims.

and I should believe the secular media because?
 
Why? Why? Why?

Do you wonder why would anyone convert to this religion… and assume that nobody would choose to except by being threatened with death?

Where do they keep all the swords, I wonder! lol

It’s just a numbers thing.

Some people freely choose to convert to Islam. But, I wonder if you’ll agree that some people (perhaps nations of people) are forced into it by being threatened with death.

I don’t know. But there is a mosque in Pakistan which claims to have Muhammad’s staff, sandals, and turban. 😃 There are pictures online but I think the website is in another language–a friend of mine showed me but I don’t know how to find them again.
 
Islam is a religion which prohibits force in matters of faith. So there is no such thing as “admittedly forceful” when Islam clearly prohibits such force.
