#1 Btw, this is funny regarding the dechristianization of France; someday, soon, the only believers left wil be arabs & africans, both muslim and christians, with the odd chinese or vietnamese buddhist or gallic scientologist.
Oh, well, there always will be Jehova witnesses, we can count on that.

#2 It'd be a shame to live in France and not be able to drink wine.

#3 It is estimated that every year in the world some six million Muslims convert to Christianity.

Muslims are waking up to the hatred/Religion they live with on a daily basis!!!!

#4 The Saudis track Muslim numbers and are pissing themselves about losing so many people. This also explains why there is such a desperate worldwide push to install Sharia as national legal code, to prevent conversions.

The biggest losses are in Africa, where both the (very conservative, thank you) Anglicans and Evangelicals can't build churches fast enough. Both of them, however, are right at their peak in getting money pipelined from the US right now, which helps a lot.

Some of those African Anglican Archbishops are veritable Popes based on their following.

#5 "Two former Kentridge High School students, whose Bible club was denied a charter at the school in part because it required members to swear allegiance to Jesus Christ.... (from yesterday).

Swear on this here Bible.

How far does Taqiya go when there is no soul to save?

#6 I've been seeing small stories like this, here and there for the last five or six years... never really played up much outside the religious press, and I am wondering if it might be an indicator of Islam actually beginning to implode. The hair-trigger touchiness, the endless boasting of how many conversions to Islam, the relentless insistance on adherance to rules about every aspect of life... I wonder more and more about how many so-called Moslems are just concluding it is madness and quietly walking away. I had read once of an interview with a Berber convert in Algeria (I think) who said that Islam had come to mean death, conversation to Christianity meant life. Sounds kind of trite and Sunday-School, put that way, but when you read all about what the modern practice of Islam demands of its' followers, it's not too surprising that a lot of them are quietly slipping away.
Which of course would make the hard-line Islamics seeth all the more. What if Islam is actually hollow, dying on it's feet and not anywhere near establishing a world-wide caliphate?

#7 It may indeed be hollow and dying on it's feet but... is so big that even hollow, if it falls on you that's bad.

#8 "..so big that even hollow, if it falls on you that's bad."
Well, of course... that's why those who have converted are so very quiet about it!

#9 At 6,000,000 conversions per year times 20 years, we should have 1,200,000 billion conversions. Kill the rest.

#10 John QC: Hate to belittle your point, but I think you carried a few too many zeros in your calculation there. At 6 million/year and 20 years, you get 120 million. By that count, that's probably less than what the ~~baby factories~~ wimmmins in tents will reproduce in the ME.

#11 I suppose the figures in France are from Baptism records. However, I doubt the world figure of six million is anything more than someone's guess (hmmm., the number 6 million seems to ring a bell - wonder what it could be).

#12 Thanks BA. My math is a bit lacking. In 200 years you get 1.2 billion. That is too long. We need to go to Plan B.

#13 MHW,
I beleave the 6 million convert figure comes from the Muslims themselves (in an article posted here at the RB). You're right that it does not cover the rate of Muslim births, but it cuts the rate of increase by about half.

Also this figure does not count the people leaving Islam and not choosing Christianity.

#14 See also STRATEGYPAGE today > DON'T BLAME THE TURKS article > Many Muslims starting to look inside Islam as to why serious probs continue to exist in Muslim communities/societies. E.g. FRANCE in SP reportedly has a larger GDP than all the Muslim nations in the world combined, + 1/2 of all Muslims remain illiterate.
