I try to look at it like this, it's not the religion, it's the followers.

no no, it is the religion itself, well, the koran at least. literal muslims, much like literal christians, are extremists in that way..

Yup, Islam is not the religion of peace at all. Just wait, the same problems the UK are having will be happening here in America and Canada soon. Islam teaches that anyone who does not submit to Allah should die. That means Atheists as well as anyone from any other faith.

no, i dont think it will reach canada, canada is more secular, we will never allow religion to gain popularity... it will be a war IF it gets to america however, crusades anyone?
but, that is to say, that Scientology does not get involved.. loool

in the case of christianity and the koran, we can look to the books themselves to find out who "god" commands us to kill..
that is why i dont call them "extremists" or "fundamentalists" i call them "literal christians/muslims"

i would say that all religion = peace, as well as islam.. The reason why most people have bad impression towards this particular religion, is probably due to the acts of those Muslims who engaged so much in war that they have killed so many innocents.

well, all religions have done bad things... the literal bible and koran tell us too... every religion, even Buddhism! had its days where it killed people for this reason or that.
so i do really think that religion does not = peace, especially when they all contradict each other.

Islam is the religion of justice revealed to all the prophets and messengers by your Lord and my Lord, Allah, the Most Just. There is absolutely no doubt that there can NEVER, EVER be any peace without justice. This is why Islam tells us to be peaceful to those who incline towards peace and to be at war with those who ask for it.
Allah says in the Qur'an what means:
"Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion and did not drive you out of your homes. Verily, Allah loves those who deal with equity." (Al-Mumtahinah 60:8)
"And fight in the way of Allah those who fight you, but transgress not: Allah loves not the transgressors." (Al-Baqarah 2:190)
Today Islam is attacked on all fronts, the whole world is uniting under the Zionists and the crusaders. So what do you expect from the Muslims who care about their religion?
Turning the other cheek is not an option, and you have understood it just like we have. As you beautifully put it, "fighting is the only way". So in the end it all comes down to a war between truth and falsehood. I chose to embrace the truth and so do thousands of people each year around the globe by also reverting to Islam.
"Truth has (now) arrived, and Falsehood perished: for Falsehood is (by its nature) bound to perish." (The Holy Quran, Al-Isra, 17:81)
