But regardless of what the Quran does or does not say, it is still true that for whatever reason, there exists an exorbitant amount of very violent radicalism within Islam. You asked what my problem is with Islam, and that is my problem: the fact that 20% of Muslims believe it is good to kill people who are not Muslim, for the fact of not being Muslim. Any normal person should have a problem with that. Including you. Especially you. These people are doing horrible things and claiming it to be in the name of your faith. That should infuriate you. You should have a major problem with that, but instead you are upset at us. That makes no sense.
The current level of violence of Muslims and Christians is not that different. Whatever some percentage of Muslims answer in polls, they are not special in their degree of violence. We have a tendency in the West to not make an issue of the religion of terrorists unless they're Muslim, even if religion is cited by terrorists as a reason for attacking. The number of terrorist acts by Muslims is not out of proportion to their percentage of the global population.
Muslims are experiencing more than their share of war, however, mostly between Muslims.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
