Of the 5 major world religions, young ones, Islam and Christianity have a rather heavy handed approach to marketing and recruitment.
These are just observations about what they have in common:
**Follow us or you're going to a lake of fire, hell, eternal damnation.
**The other religions are fakes and we're the only true way.
**We have the market cornered on the one true God.
**Both have history of violence and bloodshed in the name of their deity.
I know the the other 3 majors (Buddhism, Hindu, and Judaism) have their own low points in history and overzealous practitioner, but nothing compared to the two young faiths.
