    <<How come we don't see catholics who struggle with the tempations of the west protesting in a violent manner against innocent people?>>

    Because wittingly being violent to innocent people isn't an element of Western culture.

    <<Why does this appear to be a characteristic of islam only?>>

    Violence has been an element of "arab/Muslim" culture long before Islam came into being.

    It should be expected that a religion (presumably) of peace be perverted into one that justifies violence.

    Oh, we all struggle with the temptations of the west. It's just, we don't get all angry about it when it happens. Instead, we either continue to submit to them, or we fight them off on our own, with help from family, friends, and our priest.

    The ones who continue to submit to them become known as hour-a-week or Sunday-only Catholics, and they stop loving Christ and stop following the teachings of Christ and of the Church and start loving only money. Some of these have done so in the name of power and money, such as Nancy Pelosi, the Kennedies, and Joe Biden.
