"I'm less optimistic. Muslim countries, for the most part... I'm glad you said 'for the most part'... even though I don't think it is most, but a few yes. Milasia has the largest Muslim population, and is pretty modern and diversified. There are quite a few Asian and African countries like that. Europe and the Americas are diverse too. Among the Arab countries Egypt and Lebanon and parts of Jordan and Syria come to mind. It aint a perfect world and no matter what happens to settle all this, the world isn't likely to change. If we lived in a Christian World, lacking hypocrisy, greed, corruption, lasciviousness, and hatred, then we would have to say the Bible, and we would have to say the Quran, and the Torah are filled with lies. Maybe in Heaven not here. This is the world dude. We have to take responsibility for our individual eternal souls. Blaming groups, or worse, fighting over religion and such, is an irresponsible excuse for not doing that. There needs to be a reaction to terrorism and radical fascism, if the reaction is to do the same unto Muslims, we fail.
