Radical RW Christians Are Cut From Same Mold As Extremist Moslems And Just As Dangerous

[TheMastersNemesis]

Extremism in any form is dangerous and destructive. These elements are also a serious threat to democracy and freedom. And it is all about dictatorial power and greed. And we ignore them at our own risk.

1. it's all sheer nuttery

it's just a matter of degree

4. I think a few fanatics out there are dangerous.

But mostly they are blowhards Obnoxious and really weird.
They haven't beheaded anyone yet.

The ones like the guy here in Kansas who killed people at the Jewish Community Center and this new guy at the Planned Parenthood shootout are just plain crazy.

5. I used to agree but after I stumbled across a Pro-Caliphate group on Facebook

I have to tell you that they are different.

What people don't realize is that the death of Bin Laden was not the end of Al Qaeda.

It was just the end of an era. The new era belongs to Baghdadi and the Isis freaks.

Al Qaeda had a policy of retaliation and defending muslim lands.

The Isis freaks, Al Qaeda 2.0, have a new, different and totally warped mentality.

They are like the Inquisition crossed with berzerkers.

They want to wipe out anyone who doesn't bow down to their way of thinking, which is most people including muslims.

6. I also think this trend of polarization and demonization on both sides

is designed to keep us in our own respective bubbles, afraid and hateful of the other side, and unable to see the big picture.

7. Why bother giving 'types' to the religious extremists? If one is a religious extremist does it

matter to their victims which religion is the departure point for the extremists? Since I don't believe their religions, I'd say the detailed excuses for their violence are just delusions they have. Their actions, as you say, are very similar. Thus, to me, they are the same people, the particular flavor of ice cream they like is not pertinent all that matters is they eat ice cream.

What makes one group of extremists more dangerous than another is not the theology but organization and numbers. More extremists is more dangerous than fewer extremists, well organized extremists are more dangerous than independently operating extremists. You are looking at the wrong factors when you look to see what flavor of faith cone they each lick.

8. In their attitude towards nonbelievers and women you can't tell them apart.
