>> If ALL the 1.6 billion Muslims on Earth hated us and wanted to kill us, I think we'd be feeling it more than we have

No one said anything about "all".

All Christians aren't nonviolent, either. But very few have acted in the extreme manner that the hate-filled Muslim community has. If it is ten or twenty percent who are violent, that's a lot of violent people and they are extremely willing to act on their violence.

My knowledge of the subject isn't great but it is far greater than yours.

I believe Muslims should be considered at arms length: Those who want to behave peacefully, I'm fine with. But they should be calling out their own religious for its hatred just as most Christians were outraged at the Westboro fanatics you pointed to.

There is absolutely no question that Christianity is a far more peaceful religion today than Islam. That is not even a subject for serious debate.
