Are you saying that someone who is raised by alcoholic parents/drug addicts and is around an environment where drugs, stealing, violence and murder is acceptable is not more prone to being violence than someone that grows up in a healthy environment where crime is frowned upon, is raised by both parents, and does well in school? We are literally products of our environment. lol

So since you agree that we are products of our environment, and Muslims grow up an environment where they are taught that dying for their religion and taking infidels out in the name of Allah is acceptable I'm sure you can see that Muslims are prone to terrorist acts/violence.
I would like to point out that it does not matter what the Quran says. It matters what the religious leaders say, what the community says, and what they do. The bible also says not to eat shellfish or wear mixed fabric clothes, but not many Christians follow that philosophy. No one is complaining about hipster muslim friends who grew up in California listening to yacht rock.
There are very peaceful muslim communities and also very violent muslim communities. Ultimately, we are a product of the environment that we are shaped by. Many muslims grow up in violent and unstable communities. Do I think that muslims are inherently evil? No. However, you can't separate a religion from a culture because the religion is largely what fuels the culture. And I think that the link between muslim cultures, if considered on a global scale, and violence is pretty undeniable at this point.
