The former survives by ruthless pandering to a particular ethnic group at the expense of all others. The latter is a fairer comparison in attempting universal appeal, and have indeed worked out not appreciably worse. Furthermore most charges that has been leveled at the behavior of Muslims today can be leveled with much greater vehemence at Christians when Christianity was the same age as Islam is today. So by no means is it clear which is indeed the intrinsically less problematic religion as far as impact on welfare of mankind goes.
