I didn't say pacifist, I said non-violent. Ordinary citizen normal non-violent. Not criminals, not terrorists, not psychos. Just folks.

Oh and this statistical analysis confirms my intuition that Muslims are not especially violent, although it does note the correlation between Muslim radicals and terrorist incidents. http://polisci.berkeley.edu/sites/de...3833/Zaman.pdf

You got it. They bleat about an Islamic Caliphate as they babble about a Christian Nation.

I don't want either. I want the right to choose my own spiritual path.

One similarity is the tendency to be a legend in their respective minds.
