Yep, You're right. We should not get political/philosophical tunnel vision. We should not solidly take sides, for when we do, we are liable to take part in our side's evil.

Remember, though, that, on a practical note, we should not ignore the beliefs of terrorists either. From what I gather, Islam poses a high risk of violent extremism. If I am not mistaken, the Koran directly encourages violent jihad. I don't think the Bible comes quite to the same level when it comes to encouraging violent behavior. If terrorists did not have extremist beliefs relating to politics/religion, they probably would not be terrorists. We should try not to hurt the innocent which happen to share common, relevant ideas with terrorists (e.g., religion) because, as it has been said: It is better to let the guilty go free then to harm the innocent. However, we should not be PC and stick our heads in the sand.

Terrorists are terrorists period...it doesn't matter what their social, ethnic, or religious beliefs are. Human beings are inherently flawed, some more than others.

While this may be true in a way, this idea is a bit flawed. Terrorism is intimately tied with politics. Merriam-Webster's definition is "the use of violent acts to frighten the people in an area as a way of trying to achieve a political goal" http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/terrorism The FBI has their own complicated legalese definition
if you want to bother with reading it all https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/investigate/terrorism/terrorism-definition To ignore the politics of the matter would not be strategically wise. Neither can we totally condemn all the ideas that cause the problem just because a group of people suddenly decides to force those ideas down our throats with the tip of a sword.

cheapnewb,

here's your "Christian" terrorism,

yes it's from a left wing site, doesn't mean these events didn't happen:

http://www.salon.com/2013/08/03/the_10_worst_examples_of_christian_or_far_rig...

and there are active "Christian" terrorism groups, mostly in Africa/middle east:

http://aattp.org/here-are-8-christian-terrorist-organizations-that-equal-isis/

Listen, I'm Christian, but people are A$$HOL3S! they get addicted to power and being authoritarians wanting only their way and losing their minds when they forget how to compromise within reason and common sense. Also, I imagine, this is how most Muslims feel about Daesh/ISIS and other "Islamic" terrorists.

Some of the best screwings I've had were at the hands of self described Christians. One of the most dependable, trustworthy,honest men I have known Said he was an atheist. But sitting next to him, talking, I can't believe it. He killed himself a few years ago. His health made him burdensome on his wife.One night, when he saw she couldn't go to be with her daughter ,when she was having a baby, he told her.
I'm a burden.
Next day, twelve gauge ,no longer a burden...

most right wingers, especially the nutty ones, when you tell them about this kind of crap, are full of excuses and almost end up defending these jerks, they say things like, well, Planned Parenthood has killed millions of babies, or that the media is unfairly picking on these "Christian" groups, or sometimes they even double down

Looks like both sides, both right and left, are doing wrong here, don't you think?
