You assume that Islam is unethical. Quranic teachings are based on beautiful moral principles and enjoin ethical and just relations among people. The Quran repeatedly enjoins good actions, read it and you'll be amazed how far from truth all the negative propaganda against it is! Whether people study and follow the scripture or not is up to them. If we start following the guidance, most of the social evils will be weeded out. Sadly, you confuse peoples' thoughts, behaviour and actions with the message itself. It really doesn't matter if we label ourselves as Muslims, Jews, or any other religion or not, or if we are a member of the clergy or hold any leadership position in the community, it is basically our beliefs, intentions and actions that make us who we are and which we carry with us when we depart from this life.
