Nabil , I agree with you on everything except your portraying of islam. From what I have studied, It is an ideology of hate and violence against non muslims. Please read the post of your co-religionist Siddiqui below in response to Zafire. It says it all with references from your own scriptures. Any one wanting to learn the unsanitized version of real islam , one has to talk to an ex-muslim scholar. Ali Sina is the best known (faithfreedom.org). I found the most comprehensive explanation and analysis of Quran with context and chronology from Mohammed's authentic biographies and hadiths in Prophet of Doom by Craig Winn (prophetofdoom.net)
