Reading these threads is like watching a doctor perform a reflex test. The doctor hits your knee with a hammer, and your leg jumps up.

It seems the best way to check someone's liberal reflex is to say "Islamic Terrorist." If their liberal reflex is working correctly, they will immediately scream out "Christians."

No, we give Christian examples of terrorism to demonstrate a point that ALL religion breeds extremists who eventually give way to terrorist acts.

Which specific Mosque is the one responsible for all of the acts of Jihad terrorism?

If you can show me it's a single Mosque made up from primarily one family of whackos, it would be a viable comparison, but we all know that's not the truth.

This thread, however, says that a group of extremists represent an entire religion.

If you were capable of any logic at all, your knee-jerk response would be that extremists, by definition, cannot represent the entirety of any organization, ethnicity, religion, etc. The extremist portion of any group by definition represents the non-mainstream portions of the group. EXTREMISM. Look it up.

Again, the failure of logic is alarming.

One mosque cannot represent all of Islam.

One extremist group cannot represent all of Christianity.

One extremist group cannot represent all of Islam.

Actually the OP just said the Obama claimed ISIL is not Islamic, which is true. He didn't say anything about it representing every Muslim in the world.

But good news, your liberal reflex is working great.

Outside of the actions performed by this group, what do they think the "I" in the name stands for?

Another lie that the administration keeps repeating in the hopes that those who cannot think for themselves might believe it.

Just what is their problem?
Their problem is that they think Islam is a religion of peace.

When something happens, the idiot in the WH sticks his hands over those big ears and goes LALALALALALALALALALALALAL!!!

All that foreign stuff is taking time away from his destroying the American way of life.

FAIL!

This thread, via the OP's opening sentence, says that ISIS/ISIL is a group performing Islamic terrorism.

The title of this thread is an assertion that ISIS/ISIL equals all Islam.
