It's more about how the white man conned Africans than a religion.

The religion of peace :mrgreen: How many Africans have been sold as slave by Arabs and to Arab land? How do they treat Black Africans in Saudi Arabia or elsewhere in Arab countries?
Christianity is not a white man's religion. It is supposed to be Jesus' way and just the truth. Ethiopians have received Christianity way way before the nations who colonized Africa. The problem is, Christianity was abused by humans as many beautiful things are abused in life by humans. Jesus never preached Christianity to colonize Africa or to use Christianity for politics. Jesus preached about his and his father's kingdom and gave the instruction called the great commission to spread the good news that he concurred death and there is heavenly kingdom and who ever believes in him should be saved (in spirit) and granted by the Father to be in heavens. The message is as simple as that. We live in the fallen world. Evil is everywhere. Jesus never came to preach or fight kingdoms or human institutions. He came to declare salvation and redemption of humanity from where it fell and restitution of righteousness in Gods kingdom. The rest is manmade mixture

The religion of peace
There's no such thing as "The religion of peace".

Many people, including Muslims, think the word Islam comes from "salam/selam", which means peace in Arabic and other languages that have borrowed it, and thus they tend to parrot, like you, "Islam, the religion of peace".

The word Islam has absolutely nothing to do with the word "salam/selam".In Arabic, the word Islam does not mean peace but submission to God.

However, there's no religion that can call itself "the religion of peace", as all religions have elements of violence intrinsically incorporated in them.
