I see your point. Christianity does bring a lot to the table for losers (or shall we say the unhappy, the miserable, the lonely, etc.) But Christianity takes that misery and turns it into something positive and more meaningful, and enables the miserable to find joy.

Islam, on the other hand, seems to only fuel the misery and hatred, and advocates violence against those who aren't equally miserable.

This is just my perception, but Christianity seems to be full of positive energy (not excuses or blame) and islam is quite the opposite.

I think that is exactly right and one of the big differences in worldview between Christians and Muslims. I wish I had said it as succinctly as you just did. Thanks!
