muslim population

Please notice Muslim populations are allowed unhindered growth in free societies. This fact is not true for non-Muslim religions in Muslim dominated populations. Take a look at Saudia Arabia where Islam is in full bloom to note that Christians are not allowed free access. Saudia Arabia is a land where Christians are persecuted for believing in the saving work of Jesus. Saudia Arabia is a land where one is not allowed to challenge the veracity of the Koran because to do so would result in a murderous conclusion. Religion of peace? No. Place where other religions might prosper? No again.

Islam is not a religion of peace. Islam is a religion of coersive force applied in every wrongful way. But this is the advantage of Islam as practiced by the Muslims of these times. In their own mind they are justified to be allowed free religious expression in every place AND they are justified in using force to squelch all other religions as Sharia law is implemented in stepwise fashion.
