Factually incorrect Chuck.

Christianity had a 600 year a head start on Islam for disgusting behaviour. Islam isn't even in the same neighbourhood.

Christians have been having religious wars almost since the beginning,until-umm,now. (people are still being blown up in Ireland) Violent jihad had pretty much ceased within a century of the death of the Prophet.

Today,what is called 'Islamisation' is NOT supported by most Muslims. The main support comes from the ultra otrhodox and intolerant Wahhabi Muslims in countries such as Saudi Arabia.

On a personal note: I know two anglos who converted to Islam. Both are Americans. One is a cousin by marriage. Last I heard he was teaching Arabic at the Agha Khan Foundation in Paris. His doctoral thesis was on the work of the mulla Sadra,(Sadra al- din Muhammad al-Shirazi) known as" "the Plato of his time". The other belongs to a sufi lodge in London.

Wahhabism is a religious movement[1] or a branch[2] within Sunni Islam It was developed by an 18th century Muslim theologian (Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab) from Najd, Saudi Arabia, who advocated purging Islam of "impurities". Wahhabism is the dominant form of Islam in Saudi Arabia.[3] It has developed considerable influence in the Muslim world in part through Saudi funding of mosques, schools and social programs. The primary Wahhabi doctrine is Tawhid, the Uniqueness and Unity of God.[4] Ibn Abd-al-Wahhab was influenced by the writings of Ibn Taymiyya and questioned classical interpretations of Islam, claiming to rely on the Qur'an and the Hadith.[4] He attacked a "perceived moral decline and political weakness" in the Arabian Peninsula and condemned what he perceived as idolatry, the popular cult of saints, and shrine and tomb visitation.[4]
