I hate it when me and Frownland see eye to eye.

And I love it when wonderful fellows like Frownland point out what I've already said in regards to the evolution of Christianity.

I already explained the big picture: Islam will never get to the point where Christianity is at as long as Wahhabism and related ideologies / interpretations of Islam continue to dominate the global conversation. I doubt you'd have so much fear of Islam worldwide if you could just take that one "part" of the diversity out of the equation. Take one or two bad apples out of the barrel and the whole stigma disappears.

(I'm agnostic by the way...not that anyone cares)

Muslim's are of the Islamic faith. Therefore Muslim = Islam.

Christians are of the biblical faith. Therefore Christian = Bible.

Without a violent approach I doubt that Islam could reach Christianity's levels of popularity. It's how the Christians had to do it.

You realize that Wahhabism accounts for roughly 0.5% of the worlds Muslim population, right?

That's just the nature of what's newsworthy and what isn't.

Same could be said of all of the extreme Christians who'd like to see all of the abortion providers shot dead.
