Addi, You asked, "What does Islam have that so many are willing to do evil deeds for it, and in the name of Allah - without they realizing that what they are doing is evil? The only other ideology that I can think of that would have similar characteristics would be Nazism that literally brained washed a generation of Germans to think nothing but to destory and to kill. What is it about human spirit that so easily is drawn to being manipulated by evil?" The evil one is very deceptive and has much influence in this world, especially as the world moves more and more away from God! If people do not educate themselves properly about God, the evil one has a much easier time deceiving them. And I think that is what is happening with Islam, for the most part. And I said before, with one man and four wives, many children are born into Islam. Most of their faith is blind faith, as it is given to them from past generations and followed blindly through future generations. It is no different than any other major religion. Most know very little, or nothing about the religions they are born in too. I always recommend to all, at the very least, one should study there own religion in there life time to see if it is valid. Honestly, the study of many religions would be a better idea, but starting with your own, studying it objectively, is a good starting point. God Bless, IGIT
