1. Say : O ye that reject Faith!
2. I worship not that which ye worship,
3. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
4. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship,
5. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
6. To you be your Way, and to me mine.

I don't believe that in Islam they go out into the world, spreading the good news of a Loving God. They have been spreading their beliefs through ultimatums and by force for many generations. It's like either their way, or no way.

That sura expresses admirable sentiment, but words and deeds are seperate. In its beginnings, Islam was most definitely spread by the sword. The Koran doesn't shed any light on this matter, historical records do.
