People need to understand the Islam isn't the real problem here, it is the state of most of the Muslim countries. People there aren't educated and don't read the scriptures themselves. They rely on other people to teach them. Some ofthose people are bad (like terrorists or other people with agendas). They are easily influenced into doing or believing bad things when really there shouldn't be anyone telling them what to do.

Also, another issue is the Hadiths dictating most of the rules when the Quran says itself that it is a complete book and nothing else should be written. So for example, the rules on women's clothing in the holy book only says to be modest, not to cover the hair or to cover from head to toe with only the eyes showing.

Islam wouldn't be an issue if there was a reform throwing out Hadiths and educating people, make them read the Quran themselves and teach them to question things. I think the OP's point was that Islam itself isn't a bad religion... It just needs to be done correctly. People deny this because to them terrorist are accurate representation of Islam, which is FALSE.

In a world were every Muslims would have correct education and wouldn't trust everything anyone tells them, then yes it would truly be peaceful. If it wasn't, then why are many (educated) Muslims peaceful and loving?

So now what we need is an Islamic variation of the Reformation, where the post-scriptural addendums are disregarded?
