So the vid says like 18% of all 1.6B Muslims hold some kind of radical belief ... and the murdering/killing extremist portion is anywhere between 200k to 500k with ISIS making up about half of that number.

Wikipedia says that the US Armed Forces is like 2.5M strong incl reserves. (Canada is only 320k lol)

I find it hard to believe that there are millions of extremists

Approx how many strong is the US Army? I would to think the amount of people loyal to ISIS is a fraction of that ... tho i have no idea really

Historically the Catholic Church has done some pretty terrible things in the name of God ... the Inquisition and the Crusades (which was against Muslims) come to mind ... granted that was a long fucking time ago ...

I agree with parts of what you are both saying...but I believe the issue is the extremist point of view of the Muslim faith ... not necessarily the faith itself ... the near impossible part is telling who holds those extremist views. In the past I have had discussions with Muslim co-workers and, and you are right Randall, they do not think like Westerners at all where religion is concerned.

I am a firm believer that if u want to move to a new country that you should make a concentrated effort to integrate into the society of that country ... I know, at least in my area, that doesn't always seem to happen.

The last real whacko Christian that I can recall is David Koresh, I don't think he fancied himself a terrorist, but the results of his actions were pretty terrifying ... and done in the name of "God".

I was born and raised Roman Catholic...but I'm pretty jaded and haven't practiced religion in a looking time.

Very terrible...at a loss for words

So I should live in a constant state of fear and promote religious and racial persecution because I might be murdered someday, somehow, somewhere? That's one of the stupidest things I've ever fucking heard of.

"Let's build a wall and get rid of everyone of this particular religion" ... what's that remind you of?

Not all Muslims are terrorists ... And not all terrorists are Muslim. By the time you find out that a particular someone is a terrorist it's too fucking late ... lately it seems that the person carrying out the atrocities are locals from the targeted area FFS

We have to rely on Law Enforcement, Homeland Security, Military Intelligence, etc. to determine if an attack will happen and hope that those people can anticipate and stop the offenders before an incident occurs.
