The devout Muslim believes Sharia Law is the constitution of God and can never be changed in any way. Sharia law is the basis for the religious, political and cultural life of all Muslims.The following are just a few of the teachings of Sharia Law: Mocking anything in the Qur'an or the Sunnah of the prophet Muhammad is apostasy and therefore punishable by death.Criticizing Islam, shari'ah law or the Sunnah of the prophet Muhammad is apostasy and therefore punishable by death.Any Muslim who states a preference for democracy rather than shari'ah law or questions anything in the Qur'an or Sunnah is a kafir (disbeliever), considered an apostate, and therefore sentenced to death.Yet this religion is being touted as the religion of peace?
There is a second layer of Islamic jurisprudence.Events related to the deeds and words on Muhammad when he was not making the prophetic utterances recorded in the Koran have been compiled into a series of Books called the Hadith which are considered as important to the Muslim as the Koran.
I suggest reading the Koran and Hadiths in full before those of you that defend Islam attack those that disagree with Islam.You are showing your ignorance of the religions ideological beliefs.Your belief of Man having freedom of religion will surely be tempered.
YOU ARE THE POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK.

You may be right there, that it is the teachers corrupting the students of Islam, coercing them to violence.
But then I might ask, why does it happen so often? I mean, why does it happen more than it happens to Christians, Buddhists, or Hindus?
Islam seems to be an easy religion to corrupt toward violence if it is in fact perpetrated by the teachers as you say.
If that were truly the case, then there must be an underlying foundation for this violence somewhere within the religion or the main line of teachings.
Medina and the Origin of Jihad Stinging from the rejection of his own town and tribe, Muhammad's message quickly become more intolerant and ruthless - particularly as he gained power. Islam's holiest book clearly reflects this contrast, with the later parts of the Qur'an adding violence and earthly defeats at the hands of Muslims to the woes of eternal damnation that the earlier parts of the book promises those who will not believe in Muhammad. It was at Medina that Islam evolved from a relatively peaceful religion borrowed from others and into a military force that was intended to govern all aspects of society. During these last ten years of Muhammad's life, infidels were evicted or enslaved, converted upon point of death and even rounded up and slaughtered depending on expediency.

The problem is ISLAM as a teaching - not its members specifically - though they will allways try to deflect the criticism onto that, so they can play the race card, or point to some moderate Nazis.
