Considering the fact that Muslim religion is 500 years younger than 
Christianity, they're stuck in the medieval times compared to
Christianity. 
They are doing now what Christians did 500 years ago: convert people to 
their believe thru force.
To me they're all idiots...
Luckily there are not that many of them in ****tugal, which is 99,99% 
Catholic ;-)
