Islam is a religion that gives peace and hope to billions. It's not the many that scare me, it's the few with their extremist ideology and the passive aggressive moderates that neither condemn nor condone this archaic relic that has always been a minority in religious believers. Time for the moderates to stand up and pull the purse strings from these ideologists who hate for no reason. Peace can only have a chance if people are willing to fight for it, unfortunately the only apparent way to destroy this ideology is to burn hotter and stronger than the flame of the pious.
