Lets not play semantic games, christianity and judaism both have had their violent religious periods, then reformers tamed the zealots and the religions are able to live in peace in the same community. (By and large)
Islam lives in peace until they become strong. Watch what happens when France's muslims become a majority. (Mohammad even teaches this, as he made peace until his army was strong.) Islam has not had their reformation. The muslims who could live in peace can be converted to acceptance of violence by the weight of the koran and the sheer number of passages that say Islam must win the world. It could be said that the inactive muslims are only waiting to see who will win.
Until that change in Islam that allows Islam to believe that other religions are worthy of equal access to life and happiness , it will be a religious war. (And it will only come with the defeat of the jihadists)
As you say, peoples of all faiths can be swayed, if it happens in our lifetime, we will see it firsthand. Throughout history, civilisations, governments, and even entire ethnic groups, have come and gone. It's just the way of the world, and we are part of it
Lol -- who's the one playing a "game"??
Cut the absurd fake analogous equivocation bullsh*t.
Would you also like us to believe there is an equivocation between BB gun pellets and an A-Bomb??
