Our big time faylasoofa Angela Class wrote this little gem

>The reference to Islam as the "Submission" (to God) that brings "Peace" or is peace itself

One word: Bogus. This remark betrays your total ignorance of the Arabic language grammar back then and now and native speakers of the language find it strange when tablighees and your likes link the words salam and the word Islam. Yes both words come form the same root SLM but they have nothing anymore in common as they belong to different stems of the root SLM and check the following link and feel free to prove me wrong

So you tell us ya ayuha al-faylasoofa al-kabeera where does it say in the Muslim masora that the word Islam means submission to Allah and peace? Let me hlp you you will never find it.
