A Question

Submitted by Mitzy Roberts (United States), Nov 21, 2007 at 13:33

I hear from so many Muslims that only a small percentage of Muslims are extremist. I hear from everyone else that almost all Muslims are taught to hate,kill, and lie. That they are taught to either conform people to Islam or do Jihad a favor and kill them who do not believe.

What I really want to know is what percentage of Muslims are extremist and are taught to hate?
