Well said!

Violence is the key word for Islam.

Muslims are not tolerant: in the so called muslims countries( ex: Saudi arabia) have you ever heard of the existence of one church, on synagogue, on boudhist temple, one hindhu temple whereas Muslims claims their rigths to build mosques in other countries (europe, asia...)

I think religion is a private affair, it should remain inside the private circle. This is why western countries and many countries are called secular countries. Religion is seperated from political life. It is very important.

Islam is a great danger to this separation becaude they confuse social, culturel, politics, spirutual . It is dangerous.
