ALISMILE:
If Christianity is truly as effective, potent or captivating as u portray, one wonder why Islam that came about 1500 yrs after Christianity, has pple who left christianity in throngs and converted to Islam! Inspite of d age gap, Islam is seriously competing in terms of population of adherents! So mathematically now, which converted from which! Use ur God given brain!
So what has been the method of growth of islam? I'll tell you
In alexandria jihad and forced conversion
In constantinople jihad and killing of the men
In judea jihad
In Syria jihqd
I can go on and on!
The fact that the modern muslim tries to hide is that jihad has another meaning! It means in actual fact what Isis and boko harm have been screaming at Muslims for a while now!

Binb:
@op ayou want to count individual converts from Islam to Christianity? Ok lets count former Christian countries: Turkey, Egypt , Syria, Palestine.....

Note that, these nations were not christain nations. That prominent christains originated from them in the past did not make them Christian nations. Till date, there are men of God who are devoted Christians from those nations.
Secondly, one cannot compare the mode of conversion into christianity to the mode of conversion into Islam. This is because, while Islam enjoins forceful conversion of people, christianity enjoins preaching to convert people into its fold. In the qoran and Hadith,,mohammed and his followers forced people into becoming Muslims and refusal fetched death. Same thing happened in Nigeria during the othmam Danfodio Jihad. So it is all over the world. There is no history in the world that christains forced non Christians in a bid to convert them. But that is not the case with Islam. You remember how Kano, Bauchi, Zaria, Gombe, manna, Ilorin and even part of Oyo were conquered and forced to accept Islam as the few that rejected the faith were murdered. But in Christianity, Jesus Christ said, when you go into any city to preach the gospel, whoever that accepts be baptised. But wherever you are rejected, dust off your shoes and go away. Christains follow that injunction till date.
Again as a Christian, you are at liberty to leave the faith at your choosing. But in Islam you are not permitted as the qoran advocate your killing. This makes Islam occultism in a way. If such liberty were given in Islam it would have being a mass exodus as a lot of Muslims are uncomfortable with the religion but have no choice as they stand to face death.

HOW TO BE AN APC MEMBER OR FAN 1. Create lies; 2. Attack and insult violently when facts are presented; 3.Scream "Sai Buhari" if faced with superior argument. 4. Lose your sense of rationality and logic. 5. Insult the president and anyone that supports him 6. Lie that GEJ stole $49 billion. 7. Disagree with any event or post that portrays GEJ in a goodlight and agree with any event or post that portrays GEJ in a badlight. 8. Disagree with any event or post that portrays GMB in a badlight and agree with any post showing him in a goodlight. 6. Celebrate bokoharam attacks by shouting "GEJ is Clueless, Our soldiers are weak and 6weeks is counting oh" What surprises me is the ease and unremorseful impunity at which Buhari and his supporters tell lies. You can never see any iota of morality in them, it's such a shame! If they tell you they represent change tell them to refute the attached picture. Imagine Tinubu telling you he will fight corruption..don't be decieved..Vote wisely.

No big fuss about converting or not.... We are born into our religion... We have a conscience to tell us good from bad. If God is to judge, he won't take a Christian or Muslim that has killed someone over a Christian/muslim that has done no wrong than worshipping in his fathers faith into paradise.

We should follow our different religion, but let's keep the greatest commandment of all... LOVE.


@topic I believe no one should judge any religion or their tantrums over this thread.


Shalom.
