I lived in a Muslim country, does that count? I also studied Islam,
does that count? But obviously your experience far outweighs mine...

But they consider them all to have brought a divine revelation.

Muslims don't believe that any revealed religion is revealed TO God,
but rather BY God to humans able to receive the message. They
Believe that Jesus received a revelation as did Muhammad and Moses.
Muhammad's is more recent and therefore in their eyes more advanced,
like Religion v3.0.

1.6 billion and they outnumber Westerners. I didn't think I had to
