In all seriousness, though, I thought people knew what importing Christianity to Africa had done.
Yea and European colonialism brought segregation to South Africa, mass murder to India. It has also imported homophobia to African nations.
And there are sects of African Christianity that are as violent as some sects of Islam.
I'd suggest to those ignoring Christian history, if you think it is 100% peaceful, that is bullshit google "Lord's Resistance Army"
To all reading this, Shell B nor I bring this up to deflect critics of Islam or the Koran, but to say you cant simply single out one religion. Humans make up all religions, and humans have always had the capability of both compassion and cruelty and if you forget that, and stupidly assume a religious label magically makes one only do good, you can potentially set yourself up for a future to do those same things.
