That's also simplistic. I just pulled up what I had Googled. It was there for a little bit. My core beliefs are based on four degrees (including a Minor in Religious Studies) and fighting for victims' rights for 23 years at great expense to me and my family. Some of my allies in this fight have been religious groups which include mosques among other community resources for aid. Of course, the religious groups that might be of help to victims here in Florida would be very different from those in Syria, Iraq, Iran, or other places.
I wish people on TOTV would be a little fairer in how they treat others by not putting words in their mouths, setting up straw men, or putting false beliefs on them. I try to treat others with respect as the Golden Rule (a chief tenet of Christianity) propels us to do.
In the Villages, I would not see any more of a proclivity towards violence from a Christian Villager than from a Muslim Villager. In a war zone, I do not see either a Muslim nor a Christian nor a Jew turning the other cheek if there is a threat to the lives of their families and themselves.
