So I take it that there is no equivalent to comparative theology class there? [I always enjoyed taking comp theology, fascinating. Didn’t make me want to convert to anything though.]

Personally, I would take the point of view that if Allah was not strong enough to keep his followers, then he wasn’t that great as a deity. Same for any other deity floating around.
