It's very true that much of the world has a confused view of Christianity because of Catholicism, but I don't know if we can blame the Muslim Jihad entirely on the Catholics. I realize that's not what you were saying but I'm just throwing it out there for discussion. There are two sides to every story.

Let's not forget, the Muslim conquests may have completely taken over Europe if someone had not resisted them, and the first Crusade was a response to hostile Muslim advances into the territory of the Byzantine Empire.

During the 8th and 9th centuries, the Arabs had already invaded southern Italy along with Sicily and by 846 the Muslims had sacked Rome! The Arab Muslim conquests of 632–732 even dwarfed the Roman Empire, here's a map:

Regardless of how you see history, we have to see Islam's rotten fruit in the light of the modern day. Try having a public Bible study in Saudi Arabia and see how tolerant they are about it. Here is an excellent article regarding the war of Islam on Christianity today:
