I fear "Islam" about as much as I fear the tooth fairy. What is dangerous are individuals with "Muslm Personality Disorder". These unfortunates have so internalized the myhology of "Islam" to the point of acting out the violence advocated therein. As a result, homicide with suicidal ideation , paranoia an intense hostility toward any one not indoctrinated results even to the point of psychotic break when commiting suicide according to those who survived. Quite obviously, the mythology of "Islam" is capable, simply by following its dogma, of leading to antisocial behaviour. Like a drug, once "Hooked" the psyche needs ever greater doses to retain the "Feel good" piety and superiority that the fantasy produces. In short, the internalization of this mythology may produce similar results as steroid use, or Post Traumatic Stress disorder. Those who have internalized to the extent that they self identify as "Moslem" repersent a real potential danger to themselves and others.
