No, I don't think that every single Muslim is a terrorist. I don't think that every Muslim (or those who identify as Muslim) is cheering at what has happened in Paris. But.... this is the way it is.... every single terrorist is a Muslim. I see no Buddist terrorists, no Hindu terrorists, no Jewish terrorists, no Christian terrorists. None of those religions are out there with bombs, guns, and machetes saying convert to (pick either Buddism, Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity) or die, to try and take over the world for their own religious beliefs to force all of the world to live under the same religion

IRA = Catholic terrorists.
UDF = Protestant terrorists.
I doubt that Tamil Tigers are Muslims...
I don't doubt others will feel compelled to list even more.
Just how many abortion clinic attacks and Christian white supremist groups does it take for you to recognize one?
It's a big problem in America right now, the Republicans have convinced their base that the word terrorist is only applicable to the Islamic people.
no Christian terrorists
Do I need to get the list out again?
Tim McVeigh
Eric Rudolph
Scott Roeder
Shelly Shannon
Dylann Roof
Frazier Glenn Miller
Army of God
etc, etc.
And that's just a few of them here in the U.S. within the past 20 years that I can think of off the top of my head. That's not counting all the terrorist incidents which occurred in Northern Ireland between Protestants and Catholics back in the 80's or everything the KKK has done ever since it was first founded.
@ Wyzard
To quote TLT - hee hee, isn't she just so precious?
Please don't become as smug and condescending as that asshole.
Do you watch news, lady? How about studying any history?
Hell, come read this site!
"No, I don't think that every single Muslim is a terrorist. I don't think that every Muslim (or those who identify as Muslim) is cheering at what has happened in Paris. But...."
...the only 'But' is yours: which needs to be spanked .
'I'm not racist, but ', 'I'm not sexist, but , 'I'm not homophobic, but ' are the worst excuses imaginable: You either are racist/sexist/homophobic/Islamophobic or you're not .
"no Christian terrorists"

Timothy McVeigh. Eric Robert Rudolph. Scott Roeder. What happened in Colorado Springs last week.
Something very conspicuous by it's absence in that list of yours, which I'll point out:

So I guess we'll hear no more about 'Atheism is a religion ' then, eh fundies? The above also represents the worst argumental nightmare for you lot, so enjoy your paradox, Ruptured Retards.
So, the one who attacked PP the other week is a Muslim?
The Oklahoma City bombers are Muslims?
Anders Behring Breivik is a Muslim?
There are Buddhist terrorists too, and Hindu terrorists and Jew terrorists (and Israeli state terrorism), and there are DEFINITELY Christian terrorists. They're probably not on Faux News though; that might be why you haven't heard about them, dearie.
You don't have to be out there saying "convert or die" to be a terrorist, you only have to have the intention to instill fear in the public.
You ought to google “The Crusades” and “European Colonization”, and “Mayflower”, then you’d find more than enough evidence that Christians have tried many times to take over the world.
Oh, so the guy who attacked the Planned Parenthood building recently certainly wasn't a terrorist? Do you live in your own little world or what?
Also, the old "I'm not racist, but ..." argument. Face it, you are one. Stop deluding yourself.
Even if that were true, which it isn't, it seems that Christianity has the market cornered when it comes to death cults. I mean, I don't recall Muslims having anything like Jonestown happen. That's over 900 people for Christianity's body count right there.
* Buddhist monks in Burma.
* Tamil Tigers.
* The IRA, The LRA, The UDF. The SLA. The KKK. The JDL. The Hutteree Militia. All other kooky American "militia groups".
* Timothy McVeigh, Eric Rudolph. Anders Breivik. The idiot who killed Dr. Tiller. The idiot who shot up that Sikh Temple. Dylan Roof. The idiot that shot up Planned Parenthood a few days ago!
* And other groups....There's many others.
Every religion and political persuasion has had, at one point or another, it's violent fringe maniacs....Even peaceful religions like Buddhism. Christianity also has a very peacenik message but it's whole history has inexplicably been filled by violent maniacs. Both Siddhartha & Yeshua have facepalmed hard enough to decapitate themselves in the Hereafter (being spirits not subject to the laws of death and decay, they simply re-attach their noggins).
Eric Rudolph, Army of God, Lord's Resistance Army, IRA, Tamil Tigers, Christian Identity, KKK, Timothy McVeigh, Paul Hill, Scott Roeder, Joshua Feurstein, and the recent PP shooter prove you wrong. Most of those were Christian while Tamil Tigers are Buddhist. You fail.
I see no ... Christian terrorists
Eric Rudolph, Anders Breivik, Scott Roeder, Robert Dear (accused), Paul Hill ...
As you mention machetes, go and google "Ntarama church massacre." The pictures are too gruesome to post here. 5,000 people were murdered - the perpetrators, as well as the victims, were Christian.
This is hardly a difficult position to maintain if you insist that being a Muslim is an inherent part of people a terrorist.
Off course, you'd need to be an idiot first, but these people have a head start on that.
Psh, there's a reason Islamic terrorismnisnt really used as a scare tactic by UK politicians, people over here barely remember the 7/7 bombings.
Why? Because the Irish Christians have been bombing the crap out of us and each other for literal centuries now.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
