That's just blatantly false. Hundreds of millions of Muslims worldwide support Sharia, which is an authoritarian system. The threat of Islam to liberty worldwide is far greater than Neo-Nazis. Ya know, because it's actually already happening. Atheists get executed in many Islamic countries, along with any "apostates" who dare criticize their precious religion.
So yeah, if your idea of "not creating a climate of fear or danger" is having laws where if you dare criticize Muhammad you can be executed, then sure, Islam is so peaceful.

I literally just pointed out how I don't just care about myself... maybe you should try reading.

Forcing it onto others does. If you want to be patriotic, great. If you want to force your neighbor to wave a flag, I have a problem.
I only partially agree with you. There are 2 problems with your reasoning.
1, What do you define as harm to others? I define girls raised thinking that wearing a Hijab or Burka is their choice and somehow it elevates their value as people is fucked up and unacceptable in a civilized society.
2, To have a functional society we have to agree on a certain set of values that we consider objectively absolute (yes, you can make the argument that all morality is subjective, but that is philosophical debate) and not negotiable. Like you cannot have sex with children or marry children just because your fucked up religion allows you to, you can't kill people just because your fucked up religion allows you to, you need to provide your children with medical care even if your fucked up religion says that the Great Juju in the Sky forbids it, and you cannot fucking litter or speak loudly in the cinema even if your parents never taught you any fucking manners.
