Many atheists are against Christianity mainly because they don't like disapproval of their lifestyles.
Islam is a religion of plunder which is OK with sexual slavery. As such, it appeals to a certain personality type.
I don’t think it’s that doable, because they all hate one common enemy more than they hate each other. Until the Christians are gone, none of those groups are very motivated to eat each other.
