In history, Christian civilizations have been guilty of many of the faults that modern Islam is showing, but most of those faults were addressed and resolved during the reformation and the constant evoltion of the Christian faith.
It is the static nature of Islam that lends itself to increasing violence.

In history, yes. But recently? How many Christians have recently had largescale terrorist tendancies?
That was my point.
And the laws dictate the civilization. Stricter rules mean more lashing out. However, that also is true for really lenient laws.
The laws that are in effect in specific areas, dictates how that area will act.
