But you are equating all Muslims with terror, that's why the 1.5 billion number is so important. There are muslims who go to work worry about who's going to pay the cable bill this month etc...


There are lunatics in every religion. Not all muslims believe that you should convert. Most if not all muslims accept christ as a prophet and respect that.

I know I'm talking to myself here but when people start beliving that their religion is better and or must be forced on others... then we have issues.

"But you are equating all Muslims with terror"

No, I am equating one religion with terror. That is not to say people of other religions, nor agnostics or atheists do not have their own terrorists, but Islam does teach and practice terrorism, even if all Muslims do not practice it. It was no different among the Shinto Japanese of Imperial Japan, the Germans in Nazi Germany, nor the Fascist of Italy. There were good people among these nations that suffered greatly because many of their own kind forced themselves violently onto others, and the good did not rise up to stop their own kind from participating in the violence. Are you aware Muslims are prohibited from interfering on behalf of non-Muslims in Jihad?

Islam has painted everyone into a corner, including Muslims. The options are few. I truly wish there were good options on the table that allowed all to live in peace. Peace is always the most desirable existence. Islam is at odds with peace, even in predominately Muslim states and populations. There is no peace in Islam, although I agree a great many Muslims desire peace. They are in as bad a predicament as non-Muslims.
