It’s a complicated mess. One troublesome point is the widespread approval for punishment of blasphemy and apostasy in some Islamic countries.

This hardly proves that Islam is somehow uniquely a problem among world religions, but it is also not conducive to peaceful reform. Theocrats (of any religion) always regard dissent as blasphemy.

I see that as predominantly a problem with fundamentalism, not the religion in question. I mean, it’s not like Christianity has a great record in that arena either.
