Good point.... Violent protests about being accused of practicing a religion rooted in violence is a bit of a self-fulfiller!

I dissagree about the statment of Judaism and Christianity being violent. They are the most loving religion there is. Chistianity and Judaism is alot alike they believe the same God(The God of Abraham, Issiac, Jacob) they both teach love in many aspects to many to name here. Islam is Not the same like many believe. They believe they are the decendants of Abarham through Ishmeal. There God seems to be a demanding master isn't that what Islam means, "To submit". Our God Is a loving father and has sent his son to die in order that we may be in the presence of God(With sin no one may enter the presence of God). He left his heavenly glory to come to a place sinful and disgrace. To be beaten, whipped, spit on, betrayed, and to be crucified. If you can not see the love in that then you are blind.
It is true that Christianity was used to as a cover to send crusades to sluaghter anyone that would not convert to Christianity however not everyone is Catholic. Thus why so many demonations. So to call Judisam and Christianity violent is indeed wrong and shows you need to study up. Chirstianity is the only religion that out Gods love you go to heaven. Others you have to earn it.

Then again, religions Y and Z seem to be killing vastly more religion X-ers than vice versa. Go figure. Personally I think they're all drenched in blood.
It should be noted that the pope's remarks were taken egregiously out of context. See the link below.

there certainly seems to be a violent element to Islam, but then again look at the catholics back in the dark ages, they were psychotic killers too. Islam is the equivalent of Catholicism 1000 years ago. All false religions are violent, because Satan is there head.

Religions are not violent. People who practice these religions and are violent make these religions look violent.
