My point is that it doesn't matter if it is a lesser evil. It is still evil. That's like saying that people shouldn't complain about murder because at least it isn't genocide.

If you read the text, it's actually really not that bad for a religious text, especially towards women.
The catechism holds more authority than the word of god? *gasp*

The Bible is extensive about going against murder, Jesus is a good example of that. Compare that to Mohammed...
Not all Christians would kill homosexuals, just like not all Islamic folk would kill infidels. But, yes, I do believe some would kill homosexuals if it wasn't against the law. That is true.

Actually, you did . . .

Did people die from the protests ? Was Dan Brown shot in the face ? No. He recieved death threats, yes...but only threats. Christianity is a dog without fangs, barking away. Islam is a giant grizzli bear with bazookas strapped to its back.
Yes, the large majority are not violent. How many Islamic people do you think live in the United States? How many of them are violent?
All I am saying is that the same dislike for Christianity applies to Islam as well. One should not be hated more than the other because some Christians are happy knitting grannies. The same applies for Islam.
