    Further proof that all muslims are evil and plotting to kill all humans like the robots and/or the zombies and/or the Russians in 80s action movies starring such True American Patriots as Chuck Norris, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Lee, Kareem Abdul-Jabar, and others who all know that the super villians aka the muslims must be stopped before they can get all the components for their devious death rays because I would rather live on my feet (in a nice Protestant church) than lay down on some rug and listen some some guy with a beard because I ain't no pinko homosexual communist muslim terrorist taliban liberal freemason!!!!!!! OBAMA SUX!!!!!!

    Have religious motives been established?

    Militant Muslims are a very real danger and concern, but stupid s*** like this thread undermine the effort to address the actual problem, and instead do nothing but promote racism and xenophobia.

    Thanks for doing us all a disservice.

    This poll is flawed. Why is there no option for Zoroastrianism?

    ...and why are there no videos of Zoroastrians passing?

    I voted Catholic, because historically speaking, if there's violence over the last 2000 years in the Western World, the perpetrators were most likely Catholics.

    My bad - I did think about including it as well, but decided against it.

    I will note the 3rd person who told the FBI was almost assuredly a Muslim as well. So, no - I don't think all Muslims are terrorists. Thankfully some of them are informants.

    Dread-locked Rastas who were stolen from Africa and are fighting on arrival?

    When I analyze the stench, to me it makes a lot of sense.

    I figure it's worth dumping them all into the "Abrahamic" pile at this point.

    Shinto?
    Sikhism?
    Confucianism? (Ok, that's actually more like a philosophy; but it was treated as a religion!)

    HEY KIDS...LET'S PLAY AGAIN!

    Which major religion was the major religion of the forces who committed the following genocides/massacres---The Rwanda Genocide, the Bosnian Genocide, the Burundi Genocide, the Christmas Massacre, the Karantina massacre, the Sabra and Shatila massacre.

    Oh, and quick, which religion do the following extremist groups draw inspiration from---the Lord's Resistance Army, the National Liberation Front of Tripura, the Army of God, The Covenant, The Sword, The Arm of the Lord, Defensive Action, The Freemen Community, and Hutaree.

    (don't quibble with me about the Great Schism either, give it to me in generalities! They're all the same! Who has ever heard of Sunni or Shiite before anyways.)

    I'm supposed to take a wild guess at the religion of Abu Khalid Abdul-Latif and Walli Mujahidh? Why won't the NYT tell me!?!?

    yeah, but my guys were Christians. And they were responsible for something like---1 million deaths combined?

    so in summary, extremist Christianity wins (or loses, depending on how you value human life)!

    or, if you want to look at it another way, just don't let organized religion, especially in its' extremist form, corrupt you.

    The tactics are different if you are the outgunned underdog. From their perspective they are flying in the air vent of the Deathstar.
