No religions can live only on evil. There are good and band parts to Islam and good and bad parts of Muhammad's life.
So think of Muhammad:
In Mecca was peaceful
In Medina was a terrorist warlord
The Koran's Medina verses overrule the earlier Meccan verses
Muhammad first taught in Mecca for 13 years and only got 100 followers. Most of his preachings were peaceful during his Mecca days. This is where the Koran gets its Meccan verses which are peaceful ones.
Muhammad then moved to Medina and this is where he becomes a terrorist, assassin, a warlord. The evil verses of the Koran reflect this latter part of Muhammad's life. The Islamic Jihadists of today are copying Muhammad's life as a ruthless conqueror. All Muhammedans are ordered to emulate the life of Muhammad.
The Jihadists have plenty of Islamic scripture to back them up. More scripture than the peaceful Muslims have. And the later Medina verses are superior (overrule) the early Mecca verses whenever there is a contradiction.
The more peaceful Muslims try to ignore the evil side of Muhammad. They play a game of pretend. They are always intimidated and abused by the violent Muslims
"They play a game of pretend."
Yes. One can find verses in the Koran and Hadith the talk about when it is ok to pretend, lie, deceive, in order to "protect Islam". They are so screwed up it is totally beyond believe for those that just starting to study the cult, the histories of the region, etc.. The past few years have been a real eye opener for me. Until then I only went on what I read in a few books on Islam, one somewhat in very watered down terms made known that there was a lot wrong, but did not elaborate. It is so easy to see how these peoples in the often extreme backward social/geographic environments could so easily be keeped in ignorance. And for those that do know the real deal, Immans and professors that have contact with the western world etc., they just keep clamed up. If they get out of line due to a total change of heart (realize how bad their cult is) they stand the chance of being killed. To get truly anywhere, the world of Islam (it's various leaders) would have to provide a total thesis on how the cult really came into being and why it is not of the one real God. They would have to instruct all their peoples as how over many centuries Islam used the sword to conquere and enslave, and use OT/NT scriptures after they where converted, to teach why Islam is a clever Satanic forgery. And we know this can never happen.
So regardless of what some that abhore violence for it's very nature, try to ease the tensions, it will do no good for those billion plus adharents that have no education and have no hope, and really are still living in midevial times or earlier without a clue as how the rest of the world has moved forward.
