When a Christian kills, they don't report that a "Christian" committed murder, they just say a murder took place.
how many murders do you see in US which are motivated by religious extremism ?
Do you have some data or is it all smoke ?

Motivation is what's important here. When Muslims commit acts of terror they do it for religious reasons, not economic reasons. They act this way because it is how the very first Muslims acted. Conversion by the sword was the reason Islam spread beyond the Podunk town of Mecca where a crazed camel jockey (with an eye for pedophilia) came up with a reason to murder the next town over and subjugate them. He wrote all that garbage later to justify violence against "unbelievers," which his newly deceased neighbors certainly were. And threat of violence made other towns convert until the entire Arab world was ruled by the caliph. As religions go, Islam has a lot in common with Scientology. Started by one author, makes kooky and unsupportable claims. But Tom Cruise only whacks people in movies. These rag heads do it by the thousand to anyone not in favor with their imams.

Well, for example, I would say the entire Iraq invasion was motivated by religious extremism. Bush constantly invoked the Judeo-Christian god in his speeches and was a very strong proponent of dissolving the separation of church and state in the U.S. Estimates for the number of deaths resulting from the invasion go as high as one million.
Maybe people will blame Catholicism for it.
time to put the crack pipe down... at least mention they do know how to dress.

Any explanations on the disproportionately high number of Islamic terrorism cases compared to other religions?
Is it politically incorrect to investigate this scientifically ?
or did our rational minds become slave to political correctness ?
