@coldjoint,
Ok, cj, you're right. Muhammad did teach to kill the infidel. He also promoted peace. Those two notions aren't reconcilable for you, I get it.
The Bible says some horrible stuff too, like an eye for an eye. Yet Christians don't go around poking people's eyes out.
The thing is, "we" as in the world have to be able to get along. There's tons of religions, all teach love. Here's a list:
Religion Adherents Percentage
Christianity 2.2 billion[3] 31.50%
Islam 1.6 billion[4] 22.32%
Secular[lower-alpha 1]/Nonreligious[lower-alpha 2]/Agnostic/Atheist ≤1.1 billion 15.35%
Hinduism 1 billion 13.95%
Chinese traditional religion[lower-alpha 3] 394 million 5.50%
Buddhism 376 million 5.25%
Ethnic religions excluding some in separate categories 300 million 4.19%
African traditional religions 100 million 1.40%
Sikhism 23 million 0.32%
Spiritism 15 million 0.21%
Judaism 14 million 0.20%
Bahá'í 7.0 million 0.10%
Jainism 4.2 million 0.06%
Shinto 4.0 million 0.06%
Cao Dai 4.0 million 0.06%
Zoroastrianism 2.6 million 0.04%

Neo-Paganism 1.0 million 0.01%
Unitarian Universalism 0.8 million 0.01%
Rastafarianism 0.6 million 0.01%
total 7167 million 100%
Jesus and Muhammad were contemporaries, they knew about each other but didn't interact with one other. But, in effect, they were fighting the same battle - stopping the repression of their people.
Radicalization is nothing new, it's been around for centuries. You can stomp your foot and shout it from the rooftops, but Islam isn't going away anytime soon. It's a fact we all get to live with or die for.
