Also, more people are killed each year by Muslims than in all 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition.
Secondly, using the "other religions kill" defense in defending Islam just shows your ignorance.....because they don't. Islamic terrorists have staged nearly 12,000 deadly attacks since 9/11 all over the globe. In contrast, there may have been maybe a dozen attacks carried out by religious fanatics of all other faiths combined during the same time period. No other religion kills like Islam does.....period! It's not even close.
