I agree with you that there are a lot of problems with Islam, but you should know that most Muslims are much more moderate than what you're talking about. The thing is, we could spend all day picking out really awful, violent parts of the bible, too. We could spend all day talking about atrocities that have been committed in the name of Christianity. I don't think Judaism, Christianity, or Islam can be rightfully called religions of peace if we're going by their holy books, and we're not willing to cherry pick the best parts.
Yes, those indeed exist. But BUDDHIST suicide-bombers, ever heard of those? Most likely not and this little fact implies some religions are indeed more problematic than others.
´´most Muslims are much more moderate than what you're talking about.´´
True. I´ve stated that I think most Muslims are NOT the problem (just the extreme, violent ones) and Islam ITSELF. However, it´s the extreme, violent Muslims that TRULY follow their book. If you believe your God/Allah is PERFECT, you CANNOT throw out some of the rules, simply because you don´t like them. Sure, we should absolutely cherry-pick the good things in ALL books, but that does NOT make calling yourself a Muslim sensible. The Qur´an (or the Bible for that matter) contain WAY too much immorality for that. Shouldnt supposedly devine books ONLY contain good stuff?
Is it normal I absolutely HATE Islam?
