The Muslim hierarchy is getting desperate...and in Africa where millions of Africans abandon their misery and begin the life affirming and life fulfiling ascent into Christianity.

"Likewise the African goes to the mosque, but if we built him a school where he could spend most of his time, and provided specialized educators we could at least stop this dangerous Christian missionary octopus."
The dangerous Christian missionary octopus says: "RAWR! All your Muslims are belong to us! Islam are pwned!"

"...every hour, 667 Muslims convert to Christianity. Everyday, 16,000 Muslims convert to Christianity. Ever year, 6 million Muslims convert to Christianity. These numbers are very large indeed...
Those are some imposing figures. I never even thought that there were that many Muslims in the 1st place. I don't get out much.

That's the thing. African culture is joyous and exuberant--as anyone who has ever been to a traditional African ritual, or even a Sunday service at a black church, can tell you.
Islamic culture, on the other hand, is sullen and bitter. It is the polar opposite of anything African.

This is happening in the US as well. Many many Iranians Muslims have converted to Christianity... converting is not the word though...it's more like being liberated from. I know a few. Wow is all I can say. Their faith is amazing.

Some info not related to African Islam, but still interesting:
Indonesia has a population of about 240 million people.Islam is Indonesia's main religion, with almost 88% of Indonesians declared Muslim according to the 2000 religious census, making Indonesia the most populous Muslim-majority nation in the world.
Just some more info Islam for you...

This is great news, but these people face horrible persecution for their conversions. They need and deserve all the support they can get, including leaving their homelands when necessary.

I attend Bible Study Fellowship which is an international, inter-denominational Bible study. I have heard that in Africa the study is "standing room only" if you wish to attend...
Some day I'll have to check that out.

BTTT (sound made by Christian missionary octopus) Don't forget: the Christian missionary octopus is dangerous. It can splash-convert and its MP recharges in, like, two seconds. And he can convert buildings.

This is one reason I believe the Islamist don't want to lose in Iraq and Afghanistan. A open society means people might not choose Islam. And recent numbers indicate there have been one million converts to Christianity in those two countries.

Don't forget: the Christian missionary octopus is dangerousHe is as politically dangerous now as He has always been. Herod slaughtered the innocents to try to prevent what he feared was his challenge to the Tetrarchy. The Sadducees and the Temple elite thought that He was a threat to their power and influence. How much more intimidating must he be to Satan's quest for a caliphate. All His enemies try to put Him to death because He threatens them. But guess what, He can't be killed.

A dear friend and mentor, now at rest, was a missionary to Africa. She showed videos of tens of thousands(!) of people coming to outdoor services (in Nigeria, and other countries). Some would begin walking the day before.
She saw "loaves and fishes/burning bush"-type miracles there. It would take too long to describe, at my still-pathetic typing rate. Real mind-blowing stuff. A certain Someone apparently has a real vested interest in the place.

That's what Muslim money tells you...not true.
But there is a growing presence in Prisons. That is why it is important to support Christians who preach there.

Good news indeed.
Africa has enough problems. The cult of Mohammad only leads to greater misery.

I've heard it said many times that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the US, but I think such an assertion is based on statistical manipulation based on the miniscule base of Muslims and is expressed in %. As such the number is essentially meaningless. Some cult somewhere that increased its membership from 2 to 20 would have 1000% growth, yet would remain insignificant.
Islam is still an exceedingly miniscule religion in the US, and could only grow by immigration. Thank goodness we aren't Europe. Now, THEY do have a problem.
In terms of raw converts and new members I am very sure that Christianity is way outpacing Islam in the USA.
To: georgia2006
Actually that is a bit of a misnomer.
There are estimates of 1 to 7 million muslims in the US. Take the mean(3.5 million) that is appx. a little over 1% of the population.
Any increase will be bigger percentage(i.e faster growth rate) wise because muslims are really a small part of the US population.

Good news. Many people think that the future of the world could be determined, in part, by which religion wins the race to convert Africa, Christianity or Islam.
I'm hopeful that this news is true. But it's probably only true in countries where the Muslims are not in control of things. Wherever they are in control, the penalty of converting from Islam is death. And wherever they have substantial numbers, they spend a good deal of energy killing Christians. So it will be a real struggle.
