Now is the time to consider that not all Islamic extremists are trying to kill westerners.

Oddly, there are lots of Christians would disagree with this. Maybe Christianity (and no branch of it that I can think of) dictates what shoes you can buy, but Christianity _certainly_ passes judgement over peoples living styles. Now, making another unsupported statement does not act as support of the first statement. Can you, please, give me an idea of where I can find something that corroborates what you are saying about Islam dictating the shoes people can buy?
