Does anyone else hate the term "religion of peace"? [Spirituality & Religion]

Before my throat gets jumped down, I'll say this: I don't hate it because I think Islam is violent. I hate it because ultimately I think the term is useless. It would entail that [i]all[/i] religions are "religions of peace" since all religions preach peace and can claim that violent members of the religion are "not true members". If every religion is a religion of peace, then there is no such thing as a "religion of violence", making the term largely useless.
