Allah is not the God of scripture (which you have rejected anyway), and Mohammed is dead. Christ is risen and is alive. Those who follow the god of Islam are serving a lie and the one who is behind that lie.

LOL! I have been baptised in a Baptist Church.

From the non-believer's point of view though, why should he choose Christianity over Judaism or Islam or Hinduism for example? From the non-believer's viewpoint they are all making claims that can't be readily verified. Why shouldn't he be wary? Particularly when some of these religions state that something exceedingly nasty will happen to you if you don't accept it? You've got the Islamics saying the infidel should be killed, you've got Christians saying he will be cast into a lake of fire. Presumedly the Mulsims believe in some form of perdition as well. From the non-believer's viewpoint- he's screwed no matter what. If chooses to become a Christian, he'll go to the Muslim hell after they have cut his throat. If he opts for Islam- he'll get bombed by the US and then go to the Christian Hell.

This is one reason I don't like to discuss religion. Everybody is deadly certain their point of view is the only correct one and many are even willing to kill over it. It's just one more thing for humans to fight each other about.
