Believe it or not!! Islam is the most expand religion in America and Europe.
Is this fact that caused a minor sight on this religion (or may be we can say as a "FEAR" of this expand). consider mostly as a terrorists faith and other discredits actions that happen recently ?. what is your opinion on this?

Islam never supports terrorism.In fact,the colonial/world powers had created big IRRITANTS for them as Palestine,Kashmir,Iraq and Afghanistan etc.Certainly you should not expect that we will garland all foreign invaders on our soils.There will be no terrorism in this world if justice is done and big countries do not attack weaker countries.......You should like for others what you like for yourself.

"There will be no terrorism in this world if justice is done and big countries do not attack weaker countries"
Like when Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria attacked Israel in 48, or the countless other times Islamic countries have been the aggressors?

Yes,you are right ISLAM is the fastest growing religion not only in America and Europe but also in the world.It is also a fact that mostly the western women are converting to Islam,which shows that they find lot of protection in Islam due to hijab,marriages and a protected family life.....in a Muslim society.Certainly Islam has to enter in each house,village,town,country and continent one day when Jesus(PBUH)will come to support Islam and the Holy Quran.Only then people will come to know about this universal TRUTH and the prediction of our beloved Prophet Muhammad(PBUH)will come true,Insha Allah !!

No that is incorrect, in fact Islam is the fourth fastest growing religion world wide behind Christianity, Zoroastrianism and Ba'haism. In sub-Saharan Africa Muslims are leaving Islam by the million.
In December 2001, Sheikh Ahmad al Qataani, a leading Saudi cleric, appeared on a live interview on Aljazeera satellite television to confirm that, Muslims were turning to Jesus in alarming numbers. "In every hour, 667 Muslims convert to Christianity," Al Qataani warned. "Every day, 16,000 Muslims convert to Christianity. Every year, 6 million Muslims convert to Christianity."

My thoughts on the spread of Islam are:
The people I know who follow this religion came from countries where Islam is the major religion. When they moved, they brought their faith with them, of course. When they have children, and their children have children, it changes the statistics for percentage of people who follow this religion in our area. Of course there are the occasional converts, but I haven't personally met any.
When thinking about the converts, I have to figure that most of them were probably Christian before converting. I know a lot of Christians who are looking for something new but don't really want to move far from their current beliefs, and Islam would fit those parameters. Add into that the people who convert for "shock value" simply because Islam is seen as related to terrorism, and the ones who claim Islam without really following it for the same reason.
It doesn't really bother me one way or another, to be honest. I have a very kind friend whose religion happens to be Islam, and so I can't say I'm afraid of that religion or the members of it.
