Why not ask the opposite question if Islam itself is problematic why is it that 99% of Western Muslims are fairly secular?

Islam by itself pretty clearly does not make individuals violent
My question there would be Africa. I'm far from educated on the matter so it's a legit question, but both Islam and Christianity seem to be pretty hardline and violent in those parts, or at least in the parts that get press, and yet the muslims seem to get involved with terrorism while the Christians console themselves with just murdering gays in the streets.

That might be a complete misrepresentation, but it's the gist I get.
