Namaste,
Islam cannot be tolerant & this intolerance is built-in Q'uran. The entire doctrine is based on irrational fear of an imagined terrible & highly egoist God who can burn people in hell "for eternity" for even minor faults. You are forbidden to say ( with highly inhuman punishment) anything against whatever is writte in Q'uran, so no free discussion is possible in Islam & therefore, the religion is still in the barbaric age when it started.
On the other side there is temptation for those who seek satisfaction of their sensual desire if they agree to become a Muslim. You are promised to receive eternal life in heaven where you get white women ( called Hurs), wine ( which flows in the form of river there) & a garden full of fruit laden trees on the banks of cool rivers full of water. So, you are promised a life in a place ( which is similar to a place in a rain-forest --- a heaven for any desert dweller !) where you are free to indulge in boozing & in sex for eternity after having breakfasts, lunches & dinners of fruits all 365 days in a year !
On one side there is a burning hell for eternity & on the other side there is such a temptation of carnal pleasures for eternity .... any weak heart will choose the latter ... and will agree to do anything as long as it is written in the book. Mohammad Saheb who propagated this religion did this on the strength of sword, killing a number of innocent people in name of this new religion. What can we expect from its followers ?
I agree that there are many good Muslims but that is not because of Islam & Q'uran ... it is in spite of Islam & Q'uran.
I am sorry, if I hurt anyone's sentiments. I would be happy if I can be proved wrong.
