Yes thats very unfortunate for sure, its the same with many religions I'm affraid. People that practice them project there own problems onto them and twist it into something else.

Yup this quote shows that you need to work hard to achieve your goals in other words "nothing worth having comes easy" ... in general Islam says that the core of Islam is how you communicate with others and how you treat all people ... this is another quote by prophet mohammed ...
The more I discover about each religion the more I think that every religions core message is one of peace and communication. How interesting that we managed to twist the message so effectively...

honestly .. I am not sure if i understand the last part well .. sorry but i think you mean that you have been basing your openion about this religion from outside instead of looking deeper am i right
Yes exactly, I have been basing it upon clothing/media and talk from other people. Lately I've been making efforts to try to understand the core message and looking past the 'fluff'. This doesn't mean I agree with a lot of things religion stands for but I start to understand why they are doing it.

No problem and thank you for sharing as well. Wait I think I already mentioned that, well I guess it doesn't hurt to say twice.
