Yet, my dear Oliver, the overall percentage gradients clearly indicates more people are joining Islam than leaving Islam. The reason as to why SOME Muslims, are leaving Islam lies within culture. Many children have Islam forced upon them, so it is perceived as a force fed religion, when in fact it is not, and the Quran and the prophet Muhammad both directly preached Religious Pluralism.

Furthermore, many more Christians are leaving to join Islam, then Muslims joining Christianity.
