It's really, really hard to talk about radical Islamic terrorism

124. Don't know what most Christians think

but I doubt they really grasp the structural differences among the Abrahamic religions. It is like having a law on the books that makes jaywalking illegal. We may ignore it, but it is still there, ready to be enforced at any time and we teach our children that they should follow the law. A moral law can change, since it is not written in stone, which is why most Christians have stopped forcibly converting non-Christians and slaughtering those who refused. BTW, that IS a law still on the books in Islam, still followed by ISIL and still believed to be a law of God by millions of Muslims who don't do it themselves. When you take the bad laws off the books and tell people that they are not god's will, you allow fundamentalists to take a less violent stance without violating their religion and you don't raise a new generation with toxic beliefs.
