Well frpeter,

I do not know of any major religion that actually preaches violence.

Violence seems to go hand in hand with politics rather than religion.

I just look at the statistics. There are just over 1 billion Muslims, so, if Islam is a religion of violence, how come things are so quiet?

I believe that what we find alien is the concept of suicide bombing? Well, i think that you will still be able to find US Navy veterans of WWII who will tell you about Japanese Kamikaze pilots? It's a cultural thing perhaps? The Japanese would be Shintoist or Bhuddist I believe?

Just a thought.

nihil,

Good points. I ask the question because there are many that belive silence is acceptance and there isn't a strong voice against the extremists. Here is one example.
