It certainly doesn't appear that way.. I don't see Protestants or Catholic's blowing up innocents. Maybe we should wipe it from the face of the earth and start over again? It wouldn't hurt to try and start over right?

Here's an article from late last year from foreignpolicy.com

10 Conflicts to Watch in 2013 - By Louise Arbour | Foreign Policy

Despite the title they actually list 13 conflicts. Ten of 13 involve Muslims on one or both sides.

Judging? Certainly not from a basis of sound knowledge. Learn a bit about Islam, and how they came up with their "Allah".

Key to understanding the difference between Christianity and Islam is that they don't worship the same God.

There is no such thing as a religion of peace, and if there was, none of the 3 monotheisms would qualify...that's for damn sure.

i'd say just looking at the middle east I see no face of peace but constant turmoil and no end in site.

Never met one of dem. Most Xtians I know are far from pure. Most babies are pretty cool, but then they grow up.

O believers, take not Jews and Christians as friends; they are friends of each other. Those of you who make them his friends is one of them. God does not guide an unjust people. - 5:54

When the sacred months are over, slay the idolaters wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them. - 9:5

Fight those who believe neither in God nor the Last Day, nor what has been forbidden by God and his messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, even if they are People of the Book, until they pay the tribute and have been humbled. - 9:29
Exactly like Christianity. From II Chronicles 15:

"12 And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
13 That whosoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman."

It's a good thing Christians don't practice their religion. They might be mistaken for Muslims.
