Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

Islam is just simply growing fast because it is breeding faster as their population growth rate is later in levelling out like in the West. Years ago it was argued that if you are from a large family your parents were either sex maniacs or strict Catholics, but these days Islam is fill the same niche that was once more the domain of Roman Catholics. Because although population growth rate is declining in most ethic groups including Islam, the population growth rate decline in Islam is often nowhere near as dramatic as in the West, and in some regions and countries may still even be growing rapidly. That is my theory. :cheers:
Just because more people believe Jesus is the son of God and not the son of Satan does not make it any truer.

Putting aside for the moment the fact that Islam is a religion and not an ethnic group, population growth appears almost entirely linked to lack of education and poverty. Economic development leads almost automatically to lower population growth. Poverty is of course a major issue in many Islamic countries.

There's lots out there on this, but here is one link.
