Islam is the world's fastest growing religion. One in every five people on Earth is Muslim—roughly the equivalent of the population of China. And while the world knows all too well that some use their Muslim faith to justify acts of terror, those groups don't begin to suggest the extraordinary breadth and historic and cultural legacy of Islam.
Diane Morgan is adjunct professor of religion and philosophy at Wilson College in Chambersburg, PA.
