In what I have read of the Qur’an, it seems to me that the actions of fighting, killing, etc. are called for as a reaction to aggression, and it further instructs Muslims to quit fighting once the aggressors have ceased fighting them, and yes Christianity is more of a passive religion, in a way advocating submission as does Islam. Christianity also instructs Christians to bring others to Jesus Christ so they may be saved.

Thanks for your response.

Many Islamists have a Clintonesque definition of "aggression". To many Islamists, any resistence to Islamization is "aggression". To many Islamists, any retaliation against a Muslim is aggression. So a Muslim may commit any act against an infidel, but if the infidel responds, the the Muslim may cry "aggression!"
