[QUOTE="Coded-Dude, post: 2694949, member: 16918"] I can tell you that always and never do not belong in debates of this type, except to say that they are never true. Are we talking about radical groups(and their religious roots, or lack thereof) or oppressive governments? Semantics and scale are definitely being misconstrued as terrorism is being loosely defined as large attacks on groups of people(which it is not). Is a right wing Christian’s murder of an abortion doctor terrorism? What about a whack-job racist killing Sikh’s, thinking they are Muslim. Radical Muslims and pedophile priests are different in that one is committing the act in the name of religion while the other is hiding behind theirs(do we argue which is more abhorrent?). Couldn't one also argue that we are a Christian nation and bombing Muslims in the name of freedom is a form of Christian terrorism(we gotta keep the fight over there even if it means killing innocent women and children)? But I digress, this thread is about the "evil" Muslim religion and none of this pertains to the discussion, so will stop there.... [/QUOTE]
