Extremists, christian, muslim, jewish, hindu etc...are all dangerous. Don't let a few extremists color your perception of a billion people. Remember, just 40-50yrs ago, a great number of white americans belonged to the KKK. Did they represent the values of white christian americans?

Again, not all Muslims are the same.
And because of a bunch of radicals, we give them all a bad name.
On that very same note, I'd say the world would be a nicer place without Christians!
As for Christians (and many other religions) they also claim to love and accept others and yet they have been responsible for numerous wars and killings throughout history.
Stop generalising!

Christians make the same claim and look at all the violence that's happened in the name of Christianity. Also look at the intolerance, prejudice, and hatred derived from Christianity.
The point is any religion has followers that will interpret the dogma in a way that justifies violence and/or intolerance toward infidels or non-followers.
That being said, I think the basic principles of Islam are more easily read as justifying violence than those of other religions. Islam may not be a violent religion, but many of it's followers are and many more are not outspoken against violence.

there are Muslim extremists who are violent, but I know some Muslims that are very peace loving. I am a Christian, and know many who follow the teachings of Jesus, and others who are judgmental. I know Atheists who are mean, and I know atheists that are wonderful people. Do not generalize, because it sounds like to me, you are prejudice against Muslims and God would not be pleased with that. May we all live the way that God would have us live, pray for those who are violent and look within ourselves to see what may be offensive. Pointing fingers does not help anyone.

Why would the world be at peace? will the world be ok if christians were not here because we compare all christians with KKK and their atrocities? or the hindus who killed muslims and the muslims who killed hindus? or the buddist who kill tamils in srilanka?
I am not Muslim but to get rid of a religion which being followed by over a billion people is unfair and what about scientology? we make fun of it but looks like there is more crap happening with newer religions.
So lets say why not hand a olive branch and tell them to respect us and let us respect them let us live like relatives when we meet we say hi and when there is a party (olympics or something) lets all have fun.

The world would be a better place if people practiced their faith at home and stopped gathering in large groups under one roof to listen to one or two self-proclaimed clerics tell everyone how to think. If everyone believed whatever they wanted, and stopped insisting that their neighbour believe the exact same thing ... the wars of the world would decrease to a manageable number.

I believe it would be nicer without people like you who are filled with hatred and ignorance.
Sorry for the harsh words but don't you think that the world problem is "spreading hatred" among the people from the different faiths and backgrounds?
Peace.

well if this isn't a naive question.
How easy it is to blame others for the world's problems. Muslims do have a history of violence but they do not have the exclusive copy right on violent behavior and not all muslims are violent either

no. this question is stupid. i used to date a muslim man. he was from iraq in fact. he was very calm n relaxed about evrything. most of them that i've seen are into taking life easily or peace i guess you could say. muslims are great people as far as i know, its just the ones you hear about on tv that prolly arent. do u know any muslims??? i would guess not which means you need to go experience life in other cultures and classes of people, neighborhoods, or whatever segregates where you are from.

No question about it.
Its not PC to say so, but any rational person can make no other deduction. Almost all armed conflict worldwide is Islamic, and Islam has always been at war. The greatest genocides in human history were done by Islamists. Whats worse is that I am not exagerrating a single thing, Islam far worse than even so called "Islamophobes" even realize.
