Based on Palestinian bombers targeting woman pushing baby strollers, 9/11 terrorist going after office workers, or Boston Bombers targeting a crowd of race spectators.... seems like the Violent Islam is more popular.
So you're saying it is contradictory nonsense just like the Bible and the Torah? OK, I agree. That's a common failing of religious superstitions.

He said that Muslims would prefer we all just "see the light" and accept Islam and become good Muslims, and it's not their fault that we create problems by resisting.

This guy was living in the USA.
This is basically what the Muslim leaders in Europe are saying now.

Islam is indeed a plague upon humanity.

But then again, ALL religions have their own skeletons. However, Islam certainly appears to be amongst the worst.

If you read the Quran it is filled with violence and jihad, and indeed encourage Muslims to kill infidels in war, kill homosexuals, etc. and many Islamic leaders say that in public

Oh, that's right. The Crusades definitely ring a bell. You can swap out any religion and place another one in and it'll sound exactly the same.
You are comparing 21st Century with 1000 years ago?
Actually Jesus never encouraged violence, while the Islamic leader has done it himself and does tell his believers to kill infidels in war.
