If your only interest is in promoting Islam, don't bother. Also note that all of your quotes pre-date 9/11, and since the growth of Islam was due primarily to immigration, your assertion may no longer be accurate.

He will, because he is a Muslim.

If numbers prove a believe system to be right, then I think the athiests win.

I would imagine several possible causes: 1 - people disenchanted with the brand of Christianity they have experienced. I think a lot of non-mainstream Christianity grows for the same reason, because it's different to what people are exposed to via Xmas and the religion that used to be taught in schools. So, people try Islam because it's something different, and they are biologically predisposed to religion, and the religion they've tried, didn't work out. This is no guarentee that Islam will work out for them, long term, of course. 2 - the demonisation of Islam by the media and the Christian churches. Plainly most Muslims are not terrorists, and when people find this out for themselves, by meeting a Muslim, it will make them also question everything else they have been told.

That's the gist of it all, isn't it? I find no other rational explanation for religiousness. It's got to be sheer laziness. :~

Let them boycott Denmark. They don't know what they're missing anyway. More for me!

Studies show a strong tendency for religious belief built into the human mind (a side effect of our ability to conceptualize, actually). A small percentage of the population don't possess that tendency; I think it is fairly common for those in that small percentage to be geeks.

Probably more stupidity than laziness. "God did it" is probably the only explanation people like Gary Kirkham and Christian Graus are capable of understanding.

Have you noticed that I am ignoring your trolling on these boards ? If only others could do the same.
