In 1996 the whole world was proud of an american muslim. He growed up with the name Cassius Clay, later he joined the black muslims and took the name Muhammed Ali. He was one of the greatest sportler ever, after his sportlive he gave his money and his power to different welfare projects. And even when he got the parkinson syndrom, he tried to help other people.
I hope nobody is flaming now Muhammed Ali for beeing a muslim and a murder.
In one aspect, the islam is like every other great religion. You can take the holy book or the koran and you will find what you need. In the bible you can find the message of love, and you can find a message of "one-eye-for-another". In the name of Jesus were some millions killed, maybe you have heard about the crusades or the inquisition, the religion wars or the witchburning.
I never read the koran, but I'm sure you will find there paragraphes about the holy war and you will find paragraphes about love and peace.
Not the books are guilty, not the religions, and sure not god.
