That is why I emphasized two important points.(1) We assumed that claim in Guiness book of records is true(Still No data available or provided by you as to how this claim is made)(2) I mentioned repeatedly my calculations are a rough estimation to get an idea only.Moving forward here are the other things to consider.I've found some statstical data following the links given in the website <a href="http://richleebruce.com" target="_blank">http://richleebruce.com</a> which is Richard Bruce's website. It seems that he is the guy you mentioned several times in this forum as he listed Prophet Muhammad as the number one in his list of most influential men in history.Now according to the data taken by the "World standard for religious statistics" (A reference work published by Oxford University, however the data seems to be biased), the anual change of muslims is around 800,000 and the total change of both Christianity and Islam is around 21million. This suggests that above data in the Guiness book might be erroneous.Apart from these I considered the following data available in the internet.(1)Since you are a Richard Bruce fan, I am mentioning this first. Richard Bruce in his analysis mentions that growth of Islam is due to the birth rate.(2) Since you brought forward CNN, Richard Allen Greene, World Muslim population doubling report projects - CNN News suggests "Muslim population is mainly due to birth rate"(3)According to CIA factbook the fastest growing religion in USA as far as the percentage growth is concerned is Sikhism during the period of 1990 to 2010(4)According the respected Pakistani-born American Muslim Dr. Ilyas Ba-Yunus 75% of new Muslim Converts in the US leave Islam within a few years.video is available here <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8EC8-aVlrE" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8EC8-aVlrE</a>Also look at the comments section. It is interesting.(5) There are many cases/details given here about people who leave Islam<a href="http://www.wikiislam.net/wiki/People_Who_Left_Islam" target="_blank">http://www.wikiislam.net/wiki/People_Who_Left_Islam</a>(6) The data about the rate population growth of Islamic countries, compared to world population growth rate is a very clear indication as to how fast Islam grows because of the birth rate.Based on these information (which I came across sometime ago) and other information as well, I made a fair conclusion that the growth of Islam is mainly due to birth rate. This might not be correct but there is a very high probability, for it to be accurate.No. I do not. I haven't seen any data to support such a claim. Why don't you go ahead and prove that I'm mistaken? I don't see why I'm the one who has to prove when you are the one who is claiming Islam grows faster than any other religion.Heh, here I thought numbers never lie, it is a concrete proof. Anyways not everyone can understand that. so...</blockquote>
