You need to read some history of the Christians. They have been and are still a far bigger threat to civilisation than any other religion has ever been.
Christians dropped two atomic bombs on Japan, but I guess you could find a way to justify that?
Christians have killed doctors over womens choices, but I guess you could find a way to justify that?
But anyway we would probably agree that those people are not real Christians, and we shouldn't blame Christianity?
So why do people keep blaming Islam!?
Guns don't kill people, people do. Religions don't kill people, people do.
Religions don't kill people, people do

In the above instances, those who killed the doctors believed they were saving the lives of unborn children. It was still murder, but it was NOT an example of 'those of one religion murdering people of another religion, based on religious differences' ----- was

If muslims DON'T want people to 'blame them' for murdering people ----- then they'd better STOP murdering people ! Simple.

You seem determined to evade the issue with your greeting-card sentiments.
So let's return to the issue that has you so confused and indignant: WHY did the Turkish muslims slit the Christian's throats?
Is there a world-war occurring in Turkey?
Were the Christians at the Bible publishers in the act of killing abortionists?
No.
The Turkish muslims murdered the Christians at the book publishers because they were Christian.
Murder. Murder using 'religion' as justification.
You state:
Religions don't kill people, people do
Really?
In this instance, it was muslims who murdered Christians because they were Christians. Not because they were wearing tartan or eating pizza. No, the muslims killed the Christians because they were Christian.
No fancy dancing involving world-wars and anti-abortionists can change that fact.
It was barbaric and backwards. It was arrogant and ignorant. It was putrid ---- as is ANYone who attempts to minimise the crime or defend the criminals.
You say 'religions don't kill people' ?
Would the murderers have killed the Christians if those murderers had NOT been muslims?
Or, put another way ---- would those Turk muslims have murdered the people at the book publishers if those people had NOT been Christian?
So 'religion' DOES kill people ---- particularly when a religion exhorts its followers to 'kill the infidel'.
You have attempted to EXCUSE murder, using twisted and nonsensical logic.
Why?
What do you know of Christianity or ANY religion, apart from what your unschooled religious leaders have told you?
Do you find Christianity exhorting its followers --- now, in the 21st century --- to KILL those of other religions?
Show me where, please.
source (Cain and Abel) "On account of that, We prescribed with the Children of Israel that anyone who kills any person without another soul being involved or for causing mischief in the land, acts as if he had killed all mankind. Anyone who spares life acts as if he had granted life to all mankind. Our messengers have brought them explanations; then later on many of them committed excesses on earth." The Quran 5:31
