Religion of peace. Yeah, right.

Islam is not a religion of peace, not matter how people and even their followers want to make it out to be. At the same time I don't really consider any religion to be peacful. They all have fanatics who like to spin what their respective books have to say, to make it look like what they do is right.
Next to the Christianity, some say that Islam is not peaceful. But alone you can't really judge it. It's not the religion that is hostile but a fraction of the people.

Have you ever heard of extremists? That is what this is, radicals and fanatics distorting Islam for their own cause. They in no way represent the majority of truly peaceful Muslims.

Islam is a way of life, not a religion.
Just because people who claim to be Muslim do outrageous, violent things, that has nothing to do with Islam. People can claim to be Christian and still be nutcases. That has nothing to do with Christianity.
Regardless of what people do, Islam promotes peace.

They are crazy extremists. No different than the crazy christian extremists.
Religion breeds ignorance and hatred.
