From what I've seen, the danger from Muslim extremists outweighs that of right wing extremists by a factor of about 10,000 to 1. Exactly how many people have right wing extremists beheaded, raped or burned alive during the last year? That tells you everything you need to know about proportionality.
So stop throwing out the red herrings.
In the United States? For both Muslim and Christian extremists I think that would be "0".
Now in other parts of the world it's a different story... How about the Buhddist Bin Laden whom ordered the burning alive of civilian Muslims...
If you open your eyes you can see If you want to close your eyes and have a "us versus them" mentality then you will be blind. I vote "no" on all terrorism, whether Islamic, Christian, Jewish or otherwise inspired.
There's no such a thing as "Christian terrorism". It is completely against the teachings of Christ unlike of Muhammad. Read the scriptures of Muhammad and Jesus.
That's not how it works.
If terrorism is done in the name of Christ, it's Christian terrorism. It doesn't matter if it contradicts what Jesus would want. That's irrelevant to determine what motivates certain acts of terror.
I read the Sunnah and the Quran; don't read any website. I gave you that site because I used the Quran I owned for many years' and used the papers during my bonfire and BBQ last year (we needed magazines to make more fire) I like people who give out Qurans on the streets, good to use as napkings, tissues and toilet paper or in fire
Yup... you're really doing a good job of showing tolerance, love and the compassion of Christianity here. Very convincing on your part...

False. You cannot call yourself a Christian and not believe in Christ and his teachings. Any Christian doing bad things will be judged on their day of judgement.

Oh really? There are a whole lot of people that don't apply that principle to the Muslim world.

I don't believe in the Quran, and Muhammad was a false prophet. I truly hope he did not exist because I feel bad for Aisha and all his other wives and companions. Quran belongs to the fiction section. Believe in Muhammad should be illegal in the US because it calls for people to treat infidels as second class citizens, call for beheading, killing and violence.
Was it for religious reasons that he planned these actions? That is the case for the Islamists. Not the case here.
This caught my eye from the article...
“This man plotted to mercilessly kill us, kill our children, and blow up our mosque and our school,” said the spokesman, Muhammad Matthew Gardner. “All would agree, if a Muslim did this, the perpetrator would be immediately identified as a terrorist then prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
He would be correct. When these people repeatedly claim that they will defeat America - yes, they will be considered terrorists. It is what it is.

You're *really* convincing with such eloquent and rational arguments. I really wanted to become a Christian after you stated that you'd use another religion's holy book as toilet paper. Great job
