Not all major religions are dangerous however.
Religions do not force anyone to do anything that is wrong.
It is human instinct to know that murder is wrong.
Anyone that would murder innocent civilians did not do it because of their religion...that is only the excuse.
They did it because they are insane.
'Full Definition of insanity
plural insanities
1
: a deranged state of the mind usually occurring as a specific disorder (as schizophrenia)
2
: such unsoundness of mind or lack of understanding as prevents one from having the mental capacity required by law to enter into a particular relationship, status, or transaction or as removes one from criminal or civil responsibility'
Insanity | Definition of Insanity by Merriam-Webster
All of the 9/11 hijackers were insane (and/or so ignorant/stupid that they were legally insane). Just as the Atlanta/Baton Rouge shooters. Just as the Virginia Tech, Columbine, Aurora, Sandy Hook shooters. Just as the Oklahoma City bomber. All of them...insane.
Besides, the Bible says gays should be killed.
'“If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives.” (Leviticus 20:13 NAB)'

Yet most Christians are completely against murdering gays. Why? Because most Christians are not insane. To murder someone strictly because of their sexual preference is insane. Yet it clearly states in the Bible that gays should be killed.
The same with the Quran. I am sure there are lots of incredibly wrong and stupid things in it just as there are in the Bible. But the VAST majority of most Muslims don't follow the insane things because they are not themselves insane (or so stupid/ignorant as to be legally insane).
To murder innocent civilians en masse IS insane...and it takes an insane individual to do it.
Radical islam has become a beacon for insane people the world over to come and carry out insane deeds. It's little to do with the religion...it's just an excuse for whackos to find a source for their rage. Just as Oklahoma City provided a source for Timothy McVeigh's insane rage/hatred.
Religion is not the cause...it is only the excuse.
I sense your mind is closed on this subject...then further discussion is pointless, imo, as you will not change my mind and I will (I assume) not change yours.
So we are done here for now.
Good day.
