IMHO, there is no such thing as "radical" islam. European or moderate islam and islam are not the same things

well you are right

If religious people actually followed their religion to the latter they would be unable to live peacefully along side anyone who didn't believe the same things as them, that's a fact, it's rather a sad and ironic thing I've observed that the only way religious people can adapt to society is by ignoring or cherry picking all the bits in their religion that conflict with the rest of society, even then, frankly they still find ways to be intolerent assholes.

Why the fuck can't people go and pick a sensible religion that has no stupid book or contradictory passages in them? Sun worship for example is actually pretty logical and you really would have to be batshit crazy to find a reason to kill people from a ball of fire in the sky that floats harmlessly in space.

If you want to be a 'good' person then at least have the sense to pick a religion that doesn't teach the opression and supression of certain groups of people just because they're different from you.

What does "peacefully" mean? There are a lot of Christians who are completely interested in saving their neighbors. That's their goal. Sometimes that kind of goal doesn't bring peace to the Christians, even when the Christians gently and lovingly try to turn their friends and neighbors away from the gates of hell using whatever means available, even saying nothing, but simply acting like good friends should act.
