@Wishful thinking
by marigold on Jul 04, 2007 06:19 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Some of my very highly optimistic friends have concluded that muslims are killing each other and hence the growth of muslims around the world would come down drastically... Well !!! Here are the figures.

The population count puts the number of muslims around the world between 1.3 to 1.8 billion...I will consider it to be around 1.5 billion...
Now...the muslim growth rate is considered to be about 2% to 3% ....
All the great logical minds can work out for themselves how many muslims increase every month.... :-)

Lets assume for your happiness that 10 million muslims will be lost in all the conflicts in the next 5 years....
So the growth would be 180 million - 10 million and you get 170 million as the growth....

NOW TELL ME HOW ARE YOU GOING TO STOP IT ?

@marigold.....

Muslim growth. These are the reasons.

1. Very high birth rates in most of the muslim countries
2. Less or no use of birth control
3. Strong stupid tendency of groupism amongst themselves which in turn promotes an insular outlook with the ideal of population expansion.

Thats wishful thinking...Again the point is...How will you convert the die hard fans...Ideological wars cannot be won by abuse or some posts on the message board. Only and ideology can fight an ideology....

But I am seeing mass conversions in some other religion right now... :-) Thats what I call fighting an ideology by another independent ideology.

There are a lot of Hindu Saints in India who talk about Yoga & Life Style or Whatever, but nobody has the Charisma or Magnetism to hold people in Hinduism... That's why Thousands of Hindus are leaving Hinduism...
But for the past 30 years of my life I have never seen a Convincing debate from a Hindu Expert to justify the Truth in Hindusim.. I think Hinduism lacks Focus and confuses its followers... That's why people go away from Hinduism..
