Why Do So Many Muslims Embrace Religious and Ideological Warfare? Because the Koran commands them to do so?
Just a thought.

That’s easy, because their religion says to. The real question is why so few do.

"why then do the majority NOT embrace Religious and Ideological Warfare?" Prove it.
I know of no data suggesting Muslims DON'T embrace violence in the name of their religion.

Their death cult is rooted in hatred of Israel and "infidels", so that would be my first guess.

RE: The real question is why so few do.
It seems to be ( as opposed to Christianity ), the degree of one’s devoutness to the Koran’s teachings is directly proportional to the degree of one’s embrace of ideological warfare.

If this is so, why then do the majority NOT embrace Religious and Ideological Warfare? How do you know they don't?
Dzhokhar and Tamerlan were part of the majority. They just got tired of waiting, couldn't hold their bloodlust in anymore.
Prove me wrong.

the majority DO embrace it -- 10% are jihadis, another 50% support this actively and another 35% passively. Ask any Moslem if those who insult the prophet should be beheaded and they'll hem and haw.
The 5% who disagree are BAD Moslems

Keeping in mind that Indonesian Muslims are always pointed to as the most pacifist of Muslims in the world, I bring to you:
A poll by Gallup showed that a "significant majority" of Muslim Indonesians define the term to mean "sacrificing one's life for the sake of Islam/God/a just cause" or "fighting against the opponents of Islam".

Not sure what I have to prove. I live in New York State, where the MAJORITY of Muslims in America live. I do business with them, work with them and are friends with them.
These people I know CONDEMN the violence perpetrated int he name of Islam.

Because to take up arms and go get yourself killed is not an easy thing to do. It takes a special kind of crazy to do it.

RE: Prove me wrong.
Well why should the onus of proof be on my end and not on your end?
To: SeekAndFind
The answer is in the question.
To: SeekAndFind
I don't think the majority of them
don't embrace violence and religious warfare. Taquiyya (as I understand the concept) commands Muslims to lie to infidels in order to advance Islam, so it stands to reason that they
could all be pretending to be little passive, peace-loving sheep, when they're really knife-sharpening wolves, wearing a sheep skin suit.
I don't trust them one iota. I'll err on the side of caution.

If this is so, why then do the majority NOT embrace Religious and Ideological Warfare?Because they are not very good muslims. The extremists are merely doing as commanded.

This guy is off the mark from the headline alone. islam is not a “religion”; it is the whole package for governance. Religious aspects, law’s, finances, the whole thing. They are following a cult(ure), not a religion.
