Its very similar to how the Christian Right in the US operates, it attacks issues then claims to be victimized, resulting in a polarization between Athiesm and Christains, whilst drawing Christians into alliance that might otherwise have more in common with athiests.

The Islamist nut nuts are the ones that take the Qur'an in its most literal form, there is no point trying to side step the issue. The greater issue is how many Muslims are prepared to turn a blind eye to the 15 to 20% fanatical minority. The mountains are calling & I must go.

Quote ParchmoreEagle at 06 Mar 2015 8.42am Quote Kermit8 at 06 Mar 2015 8.17am 1,200 million Muslims in the world. A few million are sect-based jihadi nutters and nothing like the others. So if the other 99% are not engaged in nor sympathise with extreme religious violence then I suppose it is fair to say it can be classed as very peaceful overall - unlike plenty of politicians - and made up of people just like you and me more concerned with friends, food, sport and tv than Sharia. according to Wiki: As of 2014, over 2.08 billion or about 28.26% of the world population are Muslims. You obviously didn't watch the first link. 15 -25% of those are radical muslims: That's 400 million radicals devoted to destroying western society. Watch the video mate - it's informative - it will help you improve morally and mathematically. I fear you are being influenced by islamophobia. If there really were 400million hell bent on destroying The West I think we'd have had a few more bombs and such by now, don't you? Either that or they are really rubbish at it. A few hundred IRA did much more damage than the IVF (Islamic Volunteer Force) have done. Also, you are probably 500 times more likely to be killed by a Muslim if you are also a Muslim. I don't need to change my pants just yet but there are one or two on this messageboard who seem to sh1t themselves at the mere mention of the 'm' word. I won't be losing any sleep over Allah.

I heard this morning that ISIS are now destroying ancient art thousands of years old as they capture more land in Iraq. That might be their undoing as people care more about artefacts than human suffering! To the OP though, I agree with others who rightly state that pitting one religion against another is the cause of the world's problems. Why do all you religious zealots insist on thrusting your beliefs on others? I am enlightened enough thank you.
