The religion of peace- yeah right, lets ban it from The West

Well you say this, but in areas where there is only Islam it is at war with itself.

WAR HAPPENS EVERYWHERE F'S SAKE! Where in the world, tell me, where in the world is there absolutely no conflict at all?! And blaming Islam is just like blaming a rock for being a rock, it was there already many religions and even non religions cause violence. Money causes violence. Jealousy causes violence. EVERYTHING CAUSES VIOLENCE!

You guys seriously just seem to be really blind to the fact about what religion actually is, you believe that all Muslims are the same. Like all want to kill women, and do this and that when in fact this is really not true. To see that as being true makes you incredibly asinine. Do you know that Islam actually encourages scientific discovery, look at this 'It was with this understanding that the pursuit of science, especially prior to the colonization of the Muslim world, was respected in Islamic civilizations' from wikipedia.

And that last comment, 'at war with itself' that made me laugh like mad. Who isn't at war with itself. In America people are arguing about different views, southerners still argue with the northerners. Should we ban the south now? What about wars in Ireland, nothing nothing at all to do with religion. Especially Islam. But go ahead, blame Islam. Maybe it would make you guys feel a little better about your own pathetic lives to attempt to attack one whole religion because it's what some people on TV told you was the right thing to do. Absolutely pathetic.

Obvious troll who's being fed garbage by the bias media - try reading a book or two before you make such an outrageous claim.

The West wouldn't be half the things it is without the aid of Islam - which made significant advances in all aspects of society. Note the word - *made*

How did Islam 'aid' advances in any aspects of society?

If you really want to know research it, or if you want to remain ignorant in this matter then continue doing what you're doing.

You've left out a ton of things from your overly simplistic, irrelevant and inadequate theory, namely that the guy is just one single individual and not a billion+ people from all sorts of vastly differing backgrounds and mindsets.

Also, I would NOT say that all the countries fighting Islam or facing problems of so-called Islamic extremism are independent entities who 'do not know each other'. On the contrary, they are more often than not allied, if not in general then only when it comes to Islam in particular.

That said, you might also want to put things into perspective and consider that Islam has been extant for the past 1,400 years and never once iniated a holy war against any other non-Islamic entity. Islam has suddenly turned rogue post 20th century inclusive, care to pause a bit and think why? Maybe pick up a History book or two while you're at it.

Sorry, can't tell anything from a book title. I'm a history graduate; I know plenty about the Crusades. Is there an argument you're trying to make? If so, make it here.

Great. But what has the Muslim world done in the last 500 years?

Scientific knowledge did not originate with "Islam" as you say, it was incubated in the Muslim world, sure, because at that time the Muslim world was relatively tolerant and built on knowledge inherited from Greeks, Romans, Indians, earlier cultures.

So you've acknowledged that there are rifts and differing ideologies extrapolated from core Islamic teachings by different ethnic and regional groups of people, causing enough friction to result in bloody conflict. But that it's ok because war is sadly a common component of our history and present as a species?

You seem more concerned about preserving your image of Islam than you are about atrocious acts of violence. Maybe this mentality is what perpetuates said wars?

Excuse me peanut brain, how are MUSLIMS vengeful? You mean Islamists?

No. Both follow Islam? I don't see a difference.

Well, that's funny, if you're a history graduate you should be aware of the advances made by Muslims during/after the Crusades. Be it alchemy, algebra or arabic numerals used in modern mathematics now. Cataract surgery, clocks, advances in astronomy with sun dials, cutlery.

One are violent, they other aren't.

Also, have you considered that perhaps it's all the other religions that are at war with Islam, and not Islam at war with all other religions? Islam is repressed in every part of the world, but apparently unsuccessfully, in which case the matter is turned into a case of terrorists versus legitimate governments.
Muslims are an extremely weak minority in Burma. It is not in their interests to stir trouble. It has been recognised that extremist Buddhists unchecked by the Buddhist government have been the initiators of the trouble in Burma. You are fundamentally misrepresenting the whole issue, so no wonder you're arriving at that monstrous conclusion.
