There’s only two peaceful religions on this planet that I’m aware of. Pastafarians, and Jedi. All the rest engage in wars.

@LogicalDebater01

I'm seeing all these comments on no but nobody has been able to prove why. I challenge you all to probe to Me that Islam itself is a volient religion

Not a peaceful religion, no.

Pronis going to try to cherry pick Quran verses about peace and downplay what actually happens when Muslims make up the majority of a country.
