Any religion can be what its coreligionists make of it. Until congregants emphasize Sura 2:256, over the more atavistic verses, until life on earth is celebrated over death, and they reinterpret the blood-thristy aspects of the religion, it will remain reviled, hated and feared, and will be the dead-end, pun intended, on the road to utopia.
If you think violence and forced conversion is inherent to Islam, how can it be anything other than what you claim it is?
And what exactly is your point?
I mean, change from a religion comes from within. The reformation came about due to a schism within the Catholic Church, not from outside pressure.
So are you just going to hate Islam until they change themselves in a manner you deem acceptable?
I deny that I hate Islam.
It's just that I know so much more about it than you do- at this time.
Your interest, and, I'm assuming, intelligence, will require you to study in greater detail.
Marcus Aurelius said "Stand erect, or be made to stand erect."
Whether from outside or inside, Islam must be made to change. Become familiar with Italy's Sheikh Abdul Hadi Palazzi, and Irshad Manji, among others.
Remember, the first victims of Islam are the Moslems.
