Your goals are highly commendable. However my guess is the results will disappoint. Do you know of any country during last 13 centuries (since beginning of Islam) which was successful in converting Muslims to Christianity or any other religion for that matter? Are you aware that renouncing your Islamic faith is subject to a fatwa? I am not aware of any country where Muslim population actually shrank for whatever reason.

I re-post your entire comment for professing Christians on this forum to have another chance to pick up on it.

I would never matter what we believe the to be the chance of success ; it is the command of the Lord Jesus Christ to "GO" and preach the Gospel to every creature. The reasons were outlined in my post.

Any genuine Christian involved on FR knows his responsibility to the unconverted (Muslim or otherwise). Some of them who would be reading this, however, are (1) too stinking worldly to be concerned about the task ; (2) too indoctrinated by the false teaching often found on this forum that a conservative oriented economy is the answer to all of our nations ills ; (3) under the un-biblical impression that it is the responsibility of a professional Christian clergy to do all the evangelism ; (4) believe that spending all of their time on a computer and posting comments on FR and other similar forums will get the job done.

Never before in history has Islam been confronted in a country remotely similar to ours with fervent evangelistic endeavor aimed at their young people. This should be a major effort of all churches and denominations that claim to be "evangelical" or "evangelistic."
