I guess it's pointless to try and burst your bubble on clitoris mutliation. It's a cultural problem and not in any way associated with Islam. It happens outside Islam too and if it does happen with Islam, it does only happen in a minority of islamic regions. It's not the rule.
The stoning part doesn't deserve any comment, since again, it only happens in the minority of minorites and isn't the rule. If you imply it's in their book, yes, but it's in all the books.
The drawing part also only evokes violence with a very small minority. It is shunned by many, that's true, but it's not only about Muhammad, but about all humans. They are discouraged from drawing images of humans in general. But to understand that, it would require an informed opinion and somehow I doubt I'm dealing with that. Last, you might want to look at christian outrages, such as over the Piss Christ or The Last Temptation of Christ to get that it's not confined to Islam.
All in all, half assed hatred doesn't cut it. If you despise something, at least get your facts straight. Otherwise hardly anyone outside of the usual suspects will take you seriously.
Stoning rape victims is law in these Islamic majority nations. I don't see it happening in 3rd and 2nd world nations run by Christians.
Yeah, 90% of women in Egypt having their clit mutilated, totally nothing to do with Islam and only a small minority.
Did I mention violence about the prophet Muhammad? Nope. I mentioned how many Muslims want to put you in prison for drawing Muhammad. The most I see Christians do is social media outrage and not much more.
Did the Christians kill anybody over the movie The Life Of Brian? No. Did the Muslims kill anybody over the movie The Innocence Of Muslims? Why yes, yes they did.
Again, saying "only a minority of Muslims" is irrelevant. 1% of Muslims is still 15,000,000 people. There's enough Muslims that a minority still makes for a very large problem.
Nobody was killed, but points of view went absolutely fucking mental.
