>>>what connection...if any...do you think islam has to over 90 % of the worlds terrorists atrocities <<<

All these atrocities are committed in the name of Islam. I also believe that these persons are first terrorists and murderers, and them claim some religious justification for thier actions.

With the Bible and the Koran... people can pick and choose which verses apply to them and which they choose to ignore. I would call it selective dogma.

Islam is not a monolithic unified religion.
As an organized (or disorganized) religion (Islam), there is no central person like the Pope to clarify dogmatic interpretations.

That is the weakness of Islam, too many self professed Mullahs, announcing the "correct?" interpretation of the Koran.

Here in the US, we have many self proclaimed ministers of "God", preaching whatever, but they are non-violent and harmless. Thier dogma resides in thier head and is as shallow as the roots of their hair. In some parts they are called "bible thumpers".
