The problem in Islam is that it is a system of government, there is no separation of Church and State.  The governing system typically results in a dictatorship.  It is also not a political dictatorship like China, but an absolute one which demands submission of your personal identity and values.  Further, the governance is run by clergy, who aren’t primarily concerned about administration, but rather the purity of your soul, whatever that means.  It isn’t a coincidence that these religious dictatorships require such prostration in their subjects religious rituals.  Whatever qualms one has about communism, Islamic governance is far more dysfunctional.,(reply>), @Adar I agree Islam isn’t the killer it is touted to be, that is Christianity and especially Judaism.  But, consistent with its history, the culture of slavery still permeates its underlying ideology.,(reply>), Search up the statistics of the most deaths by religion. Communism is at the top and rising with China while Islamic wars didn’t even make it to top 5 on the list. No government is perfect, but our religion is. We as people are not perfect, but our religion and one God is.
