INTRODUCTION
The 21st Century has seen an on-going outburst of religious violence primarily linked to Islam. Islam claims to be the perfect religion, but lasting evidence casts severe doubt on the claim.
There is little need to emphasize that "religious" is the keyword attached to the violence we see.
We all live in a violent world. Islam, however, currently cuts a wide swath for faith-based “religious” violence, and many Muslims seemingly take pride from the religious violence we see.
They do so even as we see that Muslims are primarily the ones suffering daily consequences of internal religious violence. Non-Muslims who can be called "outsiders" also feel the thorny sting of Islamic violence.
Islamic extremists by whatever name engage in widespread equal-opportunity destruction. The Islamic World, in Arabic is called euphemistically, "The House of Islam" or dar al-Islam.
We outsiders who do not reside in the House of Islam have become scapegoats duped by Muslims as well as targets for religious violence.
