Mate,

I watch the news. I see the violence in my own 2 eyes in what muslims are THEMSELVES saying they are doing in the name of ISLAM.

THEY are saying it NOT ME.

Yes, you will find isolated cases where other religions will have the same type of people but these are a few wackos and not a global problem that really ever effects many people around the word. Most of the time, these are really land conflicts are only isolated to specific areas.

"Islam a religion of peace?" - mate, please open your eyes, just because a few politicians or 'Muslim council of Britain' come on TV and tell you so, you don't have to swallow this. Form your own opinion based on facts YOU see and here.
Do a bit of research and see how non-muslims are treated in Islamic countries. Why are their numbers so small and getting smaller?

Violence is wrong FULL STOP, whoever commits it. The Church, the Temple, The Synagoue will always preach peace but the Mosques, thats debatable. Hence, why most riots in Islamic countries occur after Friday prayers.
