I cannot even begin to give you the unfathomable numbers for the individuals who have been slaughtered because someone decided the Bible gave them the ''OK'' to do so. The events caused by those people because of their holy book, has led us to the place we presently are now. In early times, would it surprise you to know there was no greater threat than radical Christianity? Back then, it wasn't even considered ''radical'' to a point, but normal. Even when civilization moved into modern times, we still didn't have a cluephone. Slavery and murder was okay. Evil men found things in that text that inspired them to commit acts even similar to what our modern day terrorists are doing. White Nationalists, guerilla organizations, bombers against abortionists, cults, church-sanctioned pedophilia, church-sanctioned domestic violence, multiple wives, child brides, child abuse, politicians and religious leaders trying to further an 'end times' agenda... the list goes on and on. Cultists that use Islam as their crutch for barbarism and insanity blossoms from the same root cause, as everyone that came before them did.

Bad acts in history repeats itself to ad-nauseam. The fault of which lay squarely at the feet of those sheep who in their ignorance have decided without question to commit acts and figure out ways in their holy books to absolve them of it later on. Don't think for a second back when radical Christianity was the normal, that there weren't 'normal' Christians begging people to see the truth and error of their ways, just like many good Muslims do now. Islamic countries have reached a tipping point, when the bad practices their governments continue to sanction, butt heads with the modern day believer. Radical cultists these days are attempting to skew things, to prey on those who have no understanding of a faith's holy book. They love it when people say all of Islam is threat, they love it when good Muslims are viewed with ignorance and fear, they love it when the ignorant are demeaning of others... so that they can hope one day in their twisted logic there will be no distinction between the two anymore (Christian fundies operate under the same tactic btw). So that they can say, see brothers and sisters, everyone really does hate you.

You can continue to mock, exaggerate, or use sarcasm all you want, but on a fundamental level, you're doing exactly what they want you to do.

A good analogy to your argument would be, fighting aids is not important because the black death killed so many in the middle ages.

A rather false analogy, having nothing to do with the subject matter.

No one here is saying that terrorist cultist groups aren't a problem, and that they shouldn't be held accountable for their actions.

One day you'll get it.
