yeah, definitely not a charming aspect of the religion. Don't get me wrong, I've known tons and tons of muslims in my life (growing up in Saudi Arabia has that effect), and the majority are smart, kind, tolerant, just all around great people. They've been able to take the Qu'ran and adapt it to modern living. However, I've also met my fair share of people who are your stereotypical extremist muslims. One guy I went to school with is apparently serving in the Syrian army now, after being kicked out of the country after being involved in a terrorist bombing. He stole my eraser in second grade. bastard.
