True. The Bible constantly talks about peace an love, which makes it a little less dangerous than the Koran (even though the Bible can just as easily be misused).

Muhammed was a warrior and an emperor, while Jesus was just a hippie.

The Bible is extremely violent as well.

The reason why Christianity itself isn't as violent is due to the reformations which took place. Had Islam experienced said reformation and Christianity didn't, then I would anticipate Islam being in Christianity's role today

Exactly this. The Protestant Reformation and the Renaissance greatly challenged the orthodox principles of Christianity (namely the Catholic Church) back then. And those events occurred about 500 years ago.
