OK first, it's sad that your leaving bro, but if thats what you want, then please go for it, and although our views on somethings differ, i believe we can consider ourselves brothers in religion.
2nd i think their is a difference between "worshiping" and "worshipping".
Peace bro, and have good life, in a good way .

You are giving the classical 9: 5 islamophobia arguement, which is a clear example of all the arguments the produce, and also a clear example of cherry picking and taking things pout of context, here are just a few points to refute your ridiculous areguement:
1. Verses 1-4 says to uphold your treaties with the non believers
2. verse 6 says to give shelter to non combatant polytheists (AND GIVE THEM PROTECTION, EVEN IF THEY STILL DISBELIEVE)
3. verses 7-10 & 13 clearly show that this is against treaty breakers and people who attack you first

However, i must say some critisisms for muslims, most muslims (at least the ones i have encountered) will probably say that this verse was revealed in a time of war and only that, and although that is true, you should also show my three points above, because even without that context, it shows that in the own quran, you are not allowed to attack peaceful non believers,

PS dear canadian atheist
Dont even thing of bringing the old islamophobic arguement of 9: 29
because the same arguements that goes for t=verse 5 goes for verse 29, in addtion tht later verses such as 34 & 36 show that it is only used to liberate oppressed people or to fight defensively.
Even if your a non-muslim, dont act as an Islamophobe

Did not the 1st Islamic Caliph, Abu Bakr fight the apostates because they wanted to changed the laws of Zakat and leave Islam?  They had several groups and several purposes.  Also, does not satan himself also believe that GOD Almighty is One?  Is satan now a

No, it wasn't because they left Islam that they attacked, it was becuase there armies, especially sajah's were advancing and planning to capture Medina, the muslim capital, not paying taxes were also a motive, the apostate army was at of dhu Husssa, next medina, before abu bar even thoughto of attacking them.

ataturk saved the prophet's grave
he also gave statements as such
he was for religion and possibly a muslim himself, at least culturally muslim, at most a semi-practising one, he praised prophet muhammad (PBUH) a number of times. he said something like "if i were to die, may name will slowly be erased from history book, but his name will go on forever"
He did also established a branch in government to "protect islamic interests".
yet he was against religion in public life and politics,
peace

I must tell you that Hitler was most DEFINITELY a christian, he advocated something called positive christianity.
and although i agree he wasn't a christian acording to the almost everyone's else's definition, he was on his own.

I believe they refer to rewards for different things give you a different number of blessings based on your deed.

Magic here is probably not the proper translation for Sihr, you could probably even catagorize the miracles of prophet's or even magic tricks, such as pulling a rabit out of a hat as magic.
I think the proper translation should be witchcraft or devilcraft or black magic, im  not sure which is the right term in english because im not a native english speaker, so you know that it is associated with the devil.
But what you mean by "poisoning our children's minds"?
If you mean those entertaining tv kid shows movies or books like Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, I thnk they are there for teh sole lurpose of entertainment, I agree with with Tanveer and There is Only One God in the fact there is no such thing as magic, as in people are born can do certain extraordinary things, or by saying certain words you can do things, however, there os such thing as devilcraft, by which you mock and humuliate islam and destroy it by collaborating with the devil himself and the DEVIL will do the work, not you, thatis the difference between devilcraft and magic.
It is also impossible to know if someone is collaborating with the devil, only God can know, thats why most people who are executed for sorcery are innocent, many in saudi.
I am a fan of magic tricks by means such as optical illusions.
