I am gonna still disagree with you duke.

You can find all the excuses for violence that you want in the bible. There is the one story in the old testament, cant remember which book, kings maybe, where the isrealites came upon this village. They were able to convince all the men of this village to get circumsized. The next day, when all the men were too sore to do anything, they went in and slaughtered them all. Big victory and all because they were philistines.

Islam is not a religion of terror. It does not promote violence anymore than the bible promoted the violence of the crusades. It is the corrupt men beind the scenes that twist the teachings to suit their needs.
