1 if islam is a religion of peace, why do they kill people who leave it or people of other religions?

If they don't use the death threat to people who convert they will lose impact and rule of the islamic rule so they are basically 'forcing' the religion onto people. The problem with this is that deep inside people don't believe in islam and are 'faking' it.

2 if islam is the true religion, why is it that 16 million people leave islam every year?

People begin to realise how corrupt their religious leaders are and how 'scary' the quran actually is (there is a lot of evidence about this). The religion is supposedly a peaceful religion and the word of the one True God(Allah) but any true peaceful God would Not tell his followers to kill all the Jews and non-believers. Christianity was spread by peaceful apostles whilst Islam was spread by an army who persecuted thousands of people who did not accept Islam from India to Spain.

3 if Jesus was a normal prophet , why was he able to perform miracles like healing people , while other prophets couldn't ,

Obiously, the quran (which is suppose to be the true word of Allah) is suspect.
