Christianity is better evidenced than any other religion. In addition to the 27 books of the NT, there are hundreds of other documents that have survived from within 2 generations of Jesus. Tell me another religions that had even a 10th of the real-world evidence/effect immediately following it's founder, individual writings from contemporaries (other than the founder), and unbroken chain of written history going back 2000 years.

Islam is a poor comparison. Entire cultures/countries/people groups are required on pain of death/imprisonment/family banishment to adhere to Islam. My point was and is that vast numbers of adults find the message and evidence of Christianity compelling. You are not getting your message out!!
Steve,
There was not one "Christianity" but many; here are the last verses from the Gospel of Thomas:
Quote:(113) His disciples said to him, "When will the kingdom come?"
<Jesus said,> "It will not come by waiting for it. It will not be a matter of saying 'here it is' or 'there it is.' Rather, the kingdom of the father is spread out upon the earth, and men do not see it."
(114) Simon Peter said to him, "Let Mary leave us, for women are not worthy of life."
Jesus said, "I myself shall lead her in order to make her male, so that she too may become a living spirit resembling you males. For every woman who will make herself male will enter the kingdom of heaven."
