So we both agree that humans are products of their surrounding enviroments and uprising.
So we both claim that only from our own religion we get that "mystical awakening" (or how ever you call that "feeling").
Now situation would be 50 / 50.
But if you think about it, your "god-Jesus" did not offer any weapons against Islam, which in the future will claim that Jesus was its prophet, as if he would not have seen it coming. And so (with many possible interpretations it allows to do) Bible can "convert" christian to Islam (as it did for me), but neither Koran or Bible can convert Muslim to christianity. You can see this from former areas dominated by christians, that are now Islamic (f.ex. modern Turkey, Middle-East and North-Africa, even in Islamic-Spain in 13th century there were more "converts" to Islam than those with Arabic backround).
So now it is 67/33 for Islam.
Did your "god" forsake Muslims?
At least he did good work to get Islam biggest and most spreaded religion in the world, Islam has spreaded to America and sub-Saharan Africa only after christianity had won paganism there, and if Europe would be pagan and under united Roman control, I doupt we would have much Muslims here neither....
