Christianity and Islam are the only religions practiced in the East today that spread by swords and wars. Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism, etc. don't practice proselytism like Christianity and Islam do. Unlike Christianity, Islam forces its followers to submit not only religiously, but politically and socially. It is the most savage of the Abrahamic religions even if, ironically, it's the youngest.
