At the core

One feature of Islam is the inability of its adherents to absorb criticism. Islam wrongly asserts the "right" to apply direct violence against any dissenting opinion. There will always be a radical percentage of Muslims using violence as the means of making their point. Always.

What I find interesting is that Islam is a self defeating religion, a religion of contradictions The practice of Islam teaches acts should be performed with a sincere mind yet Muslims use deadly force to mold behavior. So when I proclaim that Islam is a false religion because it teaches wrongly, a war drum sounds off, beating inside the mind of a Muslim, calling an act of violence against me. By this behavior, violence against criticism, Islam proves itself to be false.

Islam teaches against the hypostatic union of Jesus Christ, denying his existence as simulteneously being true humanity and unlimited diety and yet Islam implodes when the veracity of Muhammed's claim is questioned. Islam is unable to stand doctrinally and so it uses violence. And its adherents believe themselves to be justified in using violence. Indeed, this sort of violence is a "righteous act." Funny how the Righteousness of unlimited God can be matched by the mad violence of a man with a gun, yet this is what Islam teaches. Again, it proves itself false. Muhammed is not a prophet of peace.

These sorts of murders will occur with greater frequency in every venue of life. Mark these words: This sort of violence will visit us again.
