My point is that Muslims were no worse than the rest of the world at the time, and were actually better in terms of tolerance than most others. I didn't ask for examples of Muslim conquests being violent I asked for evidence to back up your point, which seemed to be that Muslims were historically
more violent than other groups. Thus showing that Western society was also violent at the time is a valid criticism of what seemed to be your point earlier. If your point is not that Muslims were historically more violent than others at the time, but just violent, then
all groups continuing from that era should also get a share of the self-admitted irrational hatred you insist on attempting to rationalise.
The article on Moorish Iberia was to show that religious tolerance was further advanced in that region in comparison to everywhere else at the time: around the 8th and 9th centuries elsewhere anybody non-Christian had
no citizenship, which even second-class citizenship is better than. Thus it was advanced in comparison to the rest of Europe at the time, not modern day Britain, which I would never claim it to be.
Again, atrocities committed are no evidence that Muslims are historically particularly violent, as to argue that would be to argue that everyone is particularly violent.
I didn't say each and every one of them was evil incarnate.
You're right, you said you will assume all Muslims are evil incarnate until proven otherwise, which is just as backwards.
I did point out that my sources were poor, although on closer inspection it seems that the questioned source does have some background of legitimacy. This can be judged from the page detailing the site's goals.
I am not shifting the conversation off track, you explicitly stated that Muslims were violent historically, in order to justify your belief that they will be particularly violent today. I asked for a source which would show that Muslims were particularly violent in the past in order to justify this statement, as I believe we live in a reasonably peaceful society, and that pretty much all the planet progressed with us into this. Essentially I wanted evidence of your implication that Muslims have deep-seated violent tendencies which are not shared by the rest of us. You are yet to show this. I assumed you would be talking about something other than invasions as this would be necessary as evidence to back up your point, as the rest of the world committed atrocities during invasions, and they progressed to being more peaceful. I suppose you could have a belief that all people just want to fight in the manner you suggested, but if that's the case why specify Muslims in particular? You could have just said "people", which is a statement which is far more reasonable.
