Hi Christianity of today is not representing the true religion as it was used to be in my opinion.Originally it was the same message revealed on prophet Jesus as it was revealed to prophet Moses, remember the commandments!

Now due to increased global materialism and westernization the people who are running away from their religions are influenced because of the majorit which is of Christian.
If you mean to say Christianity is growing then its wrong because Islam is growing faster.

Have Islamic leaders noticed the correlation between the lack/reluctance of Catholisism's ability to 'grow' into a modern religion and Islam's same lack or reluctance?

Granted there are millions of Catholics but as modern science and knowledge spreads, so does the more modern Protestant Christian faith. The quickest growing 'faith' at the moment in the most modern, knowledgeable places is 'spirituality' or those rejecting religion altogether in favor of a direct relationship with God.
While Islam is growing, most of those who seem to adopt it also favor socialism or religious run government instead of true freedom.

I am an American fighting socialization and communism in my government. I have no qualms with Islam. I adamantly believe in freedom of faith but I do notice that less moderate Islamic beliefs are spreading globally along with socialism and communism.

When socialism is finally defeated, will Islam choose fascism? What is the destiny of a faith that refuses to accept the modern world?

Actually, the facts across the globe have that the other way around, especially in Europe where chapels and cathedrals are being turned in to mosques on a regular basis due to the shrinkage in membership Christian cults are facing. As for the United States and Canada, Islam is growing by leaps and bounds because of the literacy level of Americans.

As far as those "few" Christians who come out of Islam, it usually has a lot to do with ignorance about Christianity since Christianity is a false religion in the first place. Jesus never started a new religion nor took the Abrahamic covenant away from the Jews. The movement that Jesus started, known as The Jesus Movement apart from the Christ Movement, eventually became a sect of Judaism led by the brother of Jesus when Jesus went on his mission through Afghanistan, Pakistan, and those areas until he settled down in India. After James was martyred, their cousin Simon took over. Because Jesus was a strict Torah observer as supported in the anonymous gospels attributed to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, to truly be a follower of Jesus, you would have to convert to Judaism. Never did the Jesus Movement approve of Paul's mythologizing Jesus as an equivalent to Mithras and Isis, so the only explanation I can have about anyone converting to the the cult of Christianity is only explicit ignorance about the dangerous, terrorist cult.

As-salaamu alay-kum Dawn:

Regarding your obviously rhetorical question, "Have Islamic leaders noticed the correlation between the lack/reluctance of Catholisism's ability to 'grow' into a modern religion and Islam's same lack or reluctance?" I have to say with regard to Islam, that all depends on which part of the globe you are talking about. The majority of Muslims I know of in the United States seem to agree with me that the Constitution of the United States is very much in agreement with the Qur'an. That is neither socialism nor a religion run government.

As regards socialism and communism, one would only fight against them depending on where they are applied and when they are applied. Both systems have their good points in their proper place. For example, in a country which has a gross national product consisting of mostly agriculture would in no way survive a democracy, but a communist government would certainly be the way to go. A socialist government would not work well in a country that thrives on a vast market like the United States, but in a country like Canada where the population is only about a third of that of the State of California and which is so huge, capitolism in part would be good, but a predominantly socialist government would be best for their survival. In some aspects of socialism, the USA could also benefit, but it could not survive if it became "completely" socialized.

The United States meanwhile is actually not a completely capitolistic country as people think. It is a "Representative Republic" versus a Democracy. Your vote only counts depending on how many electoral representatives represent you.

As for fascism and Islam, because of the comparatively parallel way the Qur'an relates to the Constitution of the United States, I doubt that Islam in North America will ever rid the current form of government that exists in the United States. The only difference will be that the Christian Terrorist Network that exists so powerfully in The Great Satan of the USA won't be strong enough to get away with violating the laws that are currently in place as they violate them today. Once America becomes predominantly Islamic - and it IS on its way to becoming that because Islam is growing by leaps and bounds here - the freedom of religion promised in both the US Constitution and the Qur'an will be further secured and will no longer be allowed only within the parameters of what is acceptable to the white male dominated cult of Christianity, but instead to the full extent of the law as it actually is. The following will be the Islamic Preamble across the globe:

"We the people of the United States [Ummah], in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States [Ummah] of America."

Once that happens, there will be revolutions across the globe, especially in Muslim States that will follow suit because the U.S. Constitution and the Muslim Constitution called the Qur'an are in sync with each other. In fact, what I have seen so far, I don't know if there are any other country constitutions in the world more in line with the Qur'an than the U.S. Constitution, to be honest. I just wish it would happen in my life time.
