And again, even if God did give humanity what you're asking for, human nature would find away to dispute about it. But finally, it's all a test, do you think the only thing keeping people from embracing Islam is quibbling over words in translations? Those who don't want to open their hearts won't believe no matter what. You have to do your own homework, I'm not here to defend Islam for me, I'm already a Muslim, I'm defending it for people like you.
So basically this is a test for God to make your life easier? Yes,God could do what you are asking for, but he didn't, I personally find your request unrealistic and unnecessary, it's not a major obstacle because the main pillars of Islam are clear, and are not open for interpretation, what makes a Muslim what he is isn't something disputed upon, you want hundreds of Quran versions floating around just to make it easier for you not to lose some of the details in the translation.
"...that all the people who reject Islam will be going to hell" Yes actually, all God is asking human beings to do is to believe in him and only him, the one true God, in Islam any sin is forgivable except for ascribing no partners to him. That is basically the gist of ISlam, Our presence on earth is a test towards that end. IF worshiping God is the reason were on this earth to begin with, then yes, you'll get your punishment for failing that test, and the word is belief +works.
"But you seem to follow like a sheep " Thank you for resorting to that kind of language - I said conditioned and you say follow like a sheep, another assumption that you are making about how I came to believe what I believe. Nice!
"The only people who might see your arguments as compelling are either the wary" Again, you're giving an opinion, which I thought there was no place for in a "logical" discussion. It seems you're fine with yourself generalizing and assuming but but you don't hesitate to call me out on my "fallacies" and assumptions.
For a person who talks about proof and evidence you're taking too much liberty with numbers without giving references for them. You just made the claim that more people convert to Christianity. care to show me a reliable reference for that claim?
Our prophet was not a perfect man, granted his was guarded by God from falling into major sins, but he made mistakes, he never said he was perfect. But he is the perfect role model for the Islamic faith.
I like this video...it really makes a person think....
it's an interesting idea.

"75% of those who enter Islam leaver after 3-5 "
