I'm no expert on Islam, but I knowe enough of it to realize that all who practice it are not identical. Most, in fact, of its 1.2 billion followers, seem to do so peacefully. For those that don't, how much of their actions are due to the religion itself and how much to other factors? Skybird, you are guilty of the very same thing the eugenics followers were back in its heyday - only where they tried to simplify everything to genetics, you substitute Islam and draw the same faulty conclusions. Unfortunately for your theories, and you should know better, people are not that simple.

No, long live rationality and judging a person on their actions and not their religion, race, or gender.

The one who has rejected all identity of himself, has no tool available anymore to form criterias to decide what he tolerates, and what not. Becasue he has not only no solid ground to stand on, he has no ground at all, and call this the absence of indoctrination. For him, all and everything is levelled-out, of same size and value, vague in form, undifferenciated in quality. He lives in mental lethargy, and calls it liberty. He is a walking dead, spreading paralysis around him.
Really? I would think it more challenging to judge a person on their actions and character than to paint people into neat little categories like you are doing... 'oh you are christian, therefore you are Good and Noble... Muslim? well you are greedy, sly, and envious...'
