How many Gods are there?Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Well, you will find fanatics and extremists in any group. Among commies you will find hardcore Stalinists and the like, for instance. It just seems, correctly or not, that a greater proportion of Moslems are extremist and those extremists have done alot more noticable acts of violence."I'm moving to the Left" - Lancer

How many Gods are there?'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

beeb reports the Imam is being expelled.
From the BBC:
France expels 'pro-beating' imam
France's interior ministry has ordered the expulsion of a Muslim cleric who advocated the beating of women.
Abdelkader Bouziane, an imam in eastern Lyon, was taken into custody on Tuesday, a ministry statement said.
Mr Bouziane had told a local magazine that the Koran "allowed the beating of wives" and expressed hopes that "the entire world becomes Muslim".
The ministry statement said remarks against human rights, particularly women's rights, could not be tolerated.
The government will not tolerate public comments... which attack human dignity and in particular the dignity of women, calls to hatred or to violence, or justification of terrorism
Interior ministry statement
An expulsion order had already been issued over his views before the magazine article appeared, and the interview confirmed that the decision was correct, it added.
Algerian-born Abdelkader Bouziane told the April issue of Lyon Mag he favors wife-beating "under certain conditions, especially if the woman cheats on her husband". He claimed the Koran authorised such punishment.
He was also quoted as saying he favors an Islamic republic in France.
