It seems to me that Muslims are attempting to get around the "coversion" idea, and go straight to a militant Islamic in your face kind of religion. Some who called themselves Christians in the past tried this approach, and it's a failure.

Perhaps that is its weakness and the reason we are here. Maybe it cannot be mutated, ameliorated. I suspect that at its base, it carries a message of war rather than peace, intolerance rather than iolerance, violence rather than pacifism.
