Thanks for your opinion. Mine is that it's a religion that I don't have much truck with, but it is no more evil than my shoes.

If someone takes my shoes and beats people to death, my shoes aren't evil. They are just inanimate objects.

The fact that only a few extremists are committing evil acts indicates that the religion itself isn't evil. The people that commit evil acts sure are evil, and I think we are better off focusing on them, rather than wasting time fostering hate for a whole religion.

You might want to read up on it, then, and the history of the prophet they consider the "perfect man for all time".
