Islam isn't the Religion of Peace

Visit the BBC website, considered to the the fairest and most objective news service in the world.
Then perform a search on the word "islam" and you get some pretty worrying results.

The most "peaceful" religion in the world, somehow, manages to generate 8 violence/violent stories out of a potential 10.

Do the same for "Christianity", and the results are 0 for 10.

Im no christian, I dont believe in religion or gods, but it is a worry...

Mohammad is a Cuddly Toy

This little news story caught my eye about a British primary school teacher in Sudan who has been arrested for allowing her pupils to name a teddy bear Mohammad.

Now my first and only reaction is that this is a genuine mistake not worthy of the punishment that is being called for, imprisonment, a fine or 40 lashes.

After that, my reaction has to be the children. If Islam and the Prophet Mohammad that important to the primary school children, then they have willing to name a teddy bear after their religion. But if it is against their religion to name anything after Mohammad, or in his name, then surely it must be the blame of the parents of these children for teaching them the wrong meanings of Islam.

If, as we are told, that religion is part of their daily life, then great, but make sure you teach the right parts to your kids first.
