Show me where UNESCO used such inflammatory language in their study ? Show me where they ID most Muslim countries as "miserable places " to live ? That's your spiteful Nonsense .
I never suggested UNESCO's findings were wrong . Sure , most Muslim countries are materially poor when compared to America and Western Europe the "developed world " . However , as to whether Muslim countries are "miserable places" or not , that is up for the individual to decide for themselves .
For an "Islam debunker " like yourself , it might very well make you miserable to live in a Muslim country , nonetheless this is relative , subjective . "Relativistic fallacy " .
I simply expressed my conclusion , my opinion based on my personal experience . The reader can decide for themselves as to the accuracy or value of my experience in contrast to your cheap rhetoric and artificial inflammatory labeling

They wouldn't be as perturbed as they would if for example , one of their family members embraced Paulianity / Churchianity or atheism . My Essencian faith accepts Muhammad as a prophet and the Quran as the word of Allah / God . An Essencian can adopt the religious practices of Islam , Judaism , any faith that does not venerate lifeless idols or worships a pantheon of false gods .
We live by the principle / essence / Mind , which runs through most religions .
More , Essencia recognizes Islam as a divinely revealed religion , there is no need to proselytize Muslims hence who ever is an Essencian is prohibited to share their knowledge and promote the rites of The Way , in any Muslim country . To do otherwise , creates unnecessary conflict both in the angelic and earthly cosmos / realms .
You wrote :
AND, just how hospitable the same adult Muslim members of that Muslim family will be to you, should you do (what Muslims do to ex-Muslims and to Muslims persisting in wanting to leave Islam) to members of your family who would peacefully and voluntarily want to leave your religious belief to embrace Islam.
The above question is a bit confusing but I will try to answer it anyways …
What do they do ?
Within moderate Muslim families , it's possible that absolutely nothing will happened , provided the person doesn't attempt to change , persuade others to his new religion .
In more religious circles , shunning is used , the person is ostracized .
Rarely is a person killed . I'm not suggesting it doesn't happened , it certainly does . Nonetheless , it is not as prevalent as the "Islam debunkers " and Anti-Islam Christian axe-grinders ,would like us all to believe .
Muslims tend not to convert to other religions , they're the most difficult group to reach for another religion . Missionaries have practically spent their whole lives , thirty even forty years trying to reach Muslims for Christ , only to win maybe two or three genuine converts .
Here in Egypt there are plenty of women , and when I say "plenty" , I don't mean the majority , but there is a noticeable group or population of westernized women who are rabid feminists , liberals .etc They come from both Muslim and Christian familiess and dress in non-traditional attire , tight jeans .etc They have boy friends and are open about their sexuality .etc
There are also men who are westernized and secular . and want nothing to do with religion .
These people eat , drink and smoke cigarettes in the middle of the day , in front of everyone , even now during the month of Ramadan . You see them walking down the streets of downtown , at the cafe , universities .etc
Both the women and men who belong to this segment of the population are still alive .
Their religious parents or grand-parents haven't come after them with a kitchen knife or slipped poison into their meals .etc The anti-Islam crowd , the Christian polemicists have a very skewed and exaggerated notion of Muslim countries and how these societies deal with people who for whatever particular reason decide not to practice Islam .

I don't think you've been around the " mafiosis" much . The members of the drug-cartel syndicates are the most ruthless and treacherous people you could ever meet . I've never been involved in such activities , however I am well acquainted with how they live and operate due to where I was brought up in Miami and NY and my humanitarian work in Columbia / South America . You have absolutely no idea how evil these people are .
They have people who kidnap infants from villages , then murder them in order to use their little lifeless bodies as drug carriers . They turn on eachother at the drop of a hat . Often , they are aware that sooner or later their best "friend" in the family or "crew" will probably "wack" them , when their service is no longer needed or they become a liability .
What does that have to do with my Muslim neighbors is beyond me . It's a poor analogy .

How else should they deal with people who are spreading , what amounts to a lethal poison or a deadly disease in their society ?
If false doctrine / religion can lead someone to eternal damnation , to a state of unending torture and pain , then it should be perfectly understandable when a Muslim nation rounds up Christian missionaries and deports them .
These people are killing Muslim souls , by enticing them to eat the forbidden fruits of false religion .
Most Christians , and I'm not suggesting you're one of them , but most suspect only pay lip service to the notion that false doctrine leads to spiritual damnation .
If they actually believed that then they would understand perfectly why a Muslim society would take drastic measures against Christian missionaries , Ex-Muslims who proselytize .etc

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allaha

In both Aramaic and Arabic , the term for deity is practically the same and share the same etymology .

My guardian angel wants you to know the following ...
Good souls ascend and become gods / angels / immortals , only by way of resisting the internal pressures and propensities of their souls .
It's only through this process that human minds ascend to the realms of the supernal and eternal Mind . To inherit immortality , the divine presence , one must fight a war within , between the forces of lethargy and the forces of light and action . Those that fail the tests of time , perish .
After this human experience , you will be unable to return to the animal kingdom , because as a human being , you stand at the breach of two worlds . If you approach us as an ape , the gate will remain closed . You will be cast out into darkness and there perish as a demon .

Just how was that mafiosi of a Nazi Hitler any Christian, huh?
Narnian likes to lump the western nations into a "Christian" box , so that's why she posed the question " why do Muslims migrate to the Christian west ? How many Christians do you see migrating to the Muslim world ? " … essentially that is how she considers the west . As "Christian " .
Oh well , OK , so if that's the case , and being that you blame Islam for everything that occurs in the middle-east and elsewhere , Nazi Germany was a Christian phenomena . Hitler , who's parents were Catholic , who was brought up Catholic and went to Catholic school as a child , who often quoted from the bible in his speeches and from the works of Martin Luther , was clearly a Christian . Right ?
He maintained a friendly relationship with most of the German clergy and churches . Germany was comprised of Christians , and they fought as Nazis , for their country . They didn't have Muslim chaplins in the German Nazi army , they had Catholic and Protestant chaplins . Why , because they were Muslims ? No , they were " Christian " . Right ?
I don't believe they were true Christians , but hey following the typical anti-Islam logic , they were Christians .
See I can also play this stupid little game the Christian polemicist likes to play , and it exposes how hypocritical and delicate their position is . They throw stones from glass houses . Point at the Muslims and you have three fingers pointing right back at you . And actually that's about right , because the Muslims through out history , in general were more humane and civil in their conduct than the Christians . Less given to senseless violence .
If Hitler would have had Muslim parents and had studied in an Islamic "madrasa" rather than a Catholic school , if he would have cited Quran and Hadith in his Mein Kampf rather than the Bible and Christians like Luther , you Christian polemicists would use that often as an example of how "evil" Islam is . Muslims wouldn't hear the end of it , if Hitler would have been " Abdul " Hitler " rather than " "Adolf "
Hitler .
Regarding the mafiosos . These mafia thugs come from , not a Muslim background or from Muslim countries , but from Italy , Columbia ( Latin America ) , Russia .etc When you think "Mafia" you don't usually get a mental picture of an Arab or a Camel in the desert , you rather think of some guy name " Gino " sitting in a restaurant in little Italy , with his friends , planning the next hit or heist .
Many of these mobsters , whether they are Italian or Latin American , might go to mass every once in a while , if anything , for good luck . So following Narnian logic , since these people comes from the west , western countries and operate mostly in these "Christian " countries , then they're Christian , following Narnian "modality" of thinking .

Luxury, Sensual lingerie at Essencia" hahahaha . If you rely one me to enlighten you , you will be greatly disappointed .
1) There aren't any last prophets ..
2) There is no particular creed or archetype , myth , symbol that must be accepted in order to be " saved " . Only the essence or universal principle must be lived .
3) God is the Intelligentsia Prima , the Prime Intelligence , the Mind of the cosmos .HE/SHE runs through all , governs all , and is in all that is and shall ever be , but men perceive it not hence they die .
4) The gods do not die . They have achieved immortality by approaching God , through intentional and willful action , right action , submission , which transforms and elevates the mind / soul . The supernal and eternal Mind draws everything to it self but only a few surrender everything , their attachments and inherit eternal life .
The above is just a brief summarization of points that differ from Islam .

A man who professes the teachings of Christ is like a man carrying a lantern before him on a long, or not so long, pole; the light is in front of him, always lighting up fresh ground and always encouraging him to walk further." Leo Tolstoy

Re: Is Islamic "Allah" the same God as The Father God of Jesus?
You will only get a yes or no answer when the question warrants it ...." Is your son out of prison yet ? Yes or No answer please .... "
Yes . 'Khaatam-al-Nabiyyin' , denotes the last prophet . I pointed out that I don't believe there is such a thing as a "LAST PROPHET" . Humanity will always need the guidance of prophets .
