Nope, that link isn't doing it either. In fact I see many stories not related to Islam. Even so, you seem to have been restricted by your definition of violence. I've noted that you've only provided sources related to terrorism. Are there not other evil violent acts that aren't terrorist acts? I think you need to work on defining your terms a little more.
I find it ironic that you use the same evidence creationists use when debating them: "Show me the evidence that proves I am wrong." - The same counter-argument applies here. I'm not making the radical claim. I'm denouncing your claim based on what you have provided. Sorry buddy, but you still have that burden of providing evidence and sources. Not being an asshole about it, but that's just the way things work. But, if you're absolutely insistent on me giving you something, then by all means insist and I'll probably oblige.
Lol, I find it incredulous that as a western atheist I'm "in the dock" over terrorist behaviour!
I will tell you that at least 80% (or more) of stories on my news (BBC) relating to terrorist activity is Muslim based. What more do you want me to say? Do you get apple growers blowing up trains in your area? Or women fighting with AK47s over cheap moisturiser? Give me a reason why I'm wrong to cite Islamic violence as the biggest problem this world has right now
PS if you're about to post a reply and your response is going to be negative, improper, average, odd, obtuse, irrational, an argument, might change the focus, going off at a tangent or just mean ... go and find a maths forum to post on instead, they'll love you !!
