This religion is subject to too much interpretation and people who like to control others. The farmers and the poor and the kindest and lack the middle ages mindset practiced by this religion. As a women in a muslim country you have no freedoms. If you baby needs assistance, you cannot leave the house without your husband escorting you. If you go out and are not an older women you will be raped and beaten even if you are trying to get help for your children or family. They hate women because they cover them up in black that absorbs heat under the sun. When they are sick of their wife, the men accuse them of cheating to throw them away. They think strapping bombs onto themselves will bring them a thousand virgins in the after-life and that they are helping. They are serial killers unleashed under a god. Any religion that kills in the name of the god needs to be eliminated off the face of the earth. They know only violence and in 3rd world countries that I visited, if they drink, they beat their women who have no place to go. ... Religions that go to war over cartoons is really crazy. Many people I know lived in those countries and the conditions are really awful and when they leave, they don't exactly return.
