I think people need to worry about the growth of Islam both in the US and in the world. We need to support the Progressive Muslims and their efforts to make Islam more humane. We need to stop "honor Killings", Female Genital Mutilation, spouse abouse and educational discrimination against women. Muslims can not or will not leave Islam, apostasy is a grievous crime and in Muslim countries they will be executed. Muslims can change from traditional Islam to progressive Islam, and progressive Muslims will permit their children to leave Islam. So any effort to free people from Islam needs to be a two step process, get them to change to Progressive Muslim in the first generation and then to Rationalists in the second..
See the links to the site for Muslims for Progressive Values given by Tariq,

Which “Prophet Muhammad” has been more successful in the US: the Muslim or the Mormon?

Seething,
the prophet declared:
“…I will be
to this generation a second Mohammed, whose motto in treating for peace was
“the Alcoran [Qur’an] or the Sword.” So shall it eventually be with us—“Joseph
Smith or the Sword!”

Manalo belonged to the Roman Catholic, the Methodists, Disciples of Christ and the Seventh Day Adventist churches before founding Iglesia Ni Cristo. Catholic sources say he was educated at Brigham Young University and that is where the Mormon influence comes from, but I can not confirm it. Anyway, they are pretty much like the Mormons in theology except there is nothing about other planets and space aliens.
They are growing rapidly and are the third largest faith in the Philippines after the Roman Catholics and the Muslims. They now have some 5000 congregations including 150 in the US and they recently bought the town of Scenic, South Dakota.

Their churches are all built in a unique style I call concrete gothic, with steep roofs so snow will not accumulate and crush the roof. (I jest, no snow in Philippines)
it is believed that thru Reincarnation and spiritual Evolution we Evolve into Gods or Demi Gods
also the fact that the mormons also have a Goddess
In Mormonism, Heavenly Mother or the Mother in Heaven is the mother of human spirits and the wife of God the Father. Those who accept the Mother in Heaven doctrine trace its origins to Joseph Smith, Jr., the founder of the Latter Day Saint movement

Every Single Denomination of Christianity is a Splintered from Pagan Religions
they are nothing more than Radical Psycho Monotheistic Pagan To the Very Core of thier Religion is Pagan
from the Symbols to the Stories to Angels and Saints Everything Points to its Ancestor Origins which is Pagan Religions
( We never stopped Writting stories of the Gods )
We See the Stories and look for the message or Metaphor that the story means
We Dont take the Stories as like Pages of a history book they are just Stories
some Based on Fact others Exaggerated others just Really Good Stories
but Abrham Addicts actually Think these things happened like pages of a history book Noah ark flood story adam and eve Moses Jesus Muhammed etc
When Science and Archaeologists can Prove them wrong they still refuse the Facts and believe it
I dont read it I experience it
to walk in nature and see such amazing life from insects to flowers of all colors shapes and sizes to plants to the most amazing animals all over the Earth to Exploring the Deepest waters on Nova and seeing an Alien world here on Earth that Few have ever seen
Nature is my Holybook
Seeing the beauty of Gaias Beauty that she Created such an Amazing World not just for us but for Billions of other Life and how it all works into a living Ecosystem that is simply Amazing
I worship Nature I can prove it exists
whichever choice of words you choose to call it
worshiping Gaia mother Earth is Easy
Plant a Garden and flowers and plants Eat Fresh and healthy fruits and vegetables
Walk in nature some people like to build bird houses for the birdies
meditate to Nature like at the beach or under a tree Respect all of Creation
Fresh Clean Air Fresh Food Clean water
beautiful nature to look at and be in Awe by it
Gaia never asks me to prove my Worth to her
Gaia never asks me to hurt myself
Gaia never tells me im a Sinner or Evil
Gaia is loving mother who loves all her children even the children who dont believe in her all she wants us to live in peace and harmony with each other and nature and live in balance with our Enviroment and Dont pollute
i dont think that is asking too much
Dress up as a Viking Warrior Drink beer Eat good food
Tell stories go on adventures and experience life have fun
Watch movies while Dressed as a viking RAWR and Stuff Toast a Beer to the Gods
to Thor and Odin and Lady Freya
at least Odin keeps his Promises
