A tree shall be judged according to the fruit it bears. The European communities are thriving under democracy, relative equality for women, and the clear sight of science. Tell me, how are the Muslim communities doing? Poorly-- they are filled with rage, with a disrespect of education, with inequality for women, and a complete (I mean, really complete) disregard for free speech. You proudly proclaim that Islam is the fastest growing religion, but when anyone points out the great harm that this is bringing to the world, you go straight to no true Scotsman arguments: they aren't the REAL muslims, you should study the Koran to understand what REAL muslims think. Which is it?
Anyway, why do you need to argue about the religious community? We are talking about whether an all-good, all-powerful God exists. The fact is that if there are false muslims, and they are inflicting harm on innocents, then God is allowing this harm and injustice to be inflicted on innocents. God therefore is unjust, or unwilling/unable to eliminate the injustice. Such a weak or immoral God could only be the product of the minds of men-- and if there is a real God, your ideas about Him must necessarily be wrong.
