I guess your right. Islam isnt so bad after all. BARF!
It's not a joke. Islam isn't so bad if civilized people practice it. THINK about the way ANY religion is practiced in accordance with the heritage and history of its followers. Better Latinas than those who have a history of dictatorship, poverty and oppression. It is one step up.
Sometimes you gotta be practical and change/moderate a religion when you can't end it. I have read many portions of the Koran, and it isn't much different than the Old Testament. The key is the people and how they manifest that religion. If people who practice Islam come from a tradition of freedom, then Islam becomes more tolerant of other religions.
