Debate:Does mainstream Islam endorse violence? (view source)

:I believe it was an Irish philosopher who said that "Evil only triumphs when good men do nothing." If mainstream Islam is doing nothing to stop the extremists when they supposedly don't believe in what those extremists are doing, it is nearly as bad as actively supporting them. But not quite.

Does mainstream Christianity endorse violence? No? But there are some Christians who do some pretty extreme things in the name of their god. Explain to me how this is any different. I would argue that Islam, as a whole, is much more peaceful than Christianity as a whole.

Islam is a pretty big thing. It has about a billion and a half adherents, about five times the population of the United States.
