Reader comment on item: [Pakistani Christians and] A War Against What?
in response to reader comment: It's Time to Condemn All Religious Radicalism

Submitted by "JB" in PGH (United States), Oct 2, 2002 at 11:50

I agree with you that all religious extremes are potentially dangerous. However, none, except Militant Islam has actually flown planes into buildings, or strapped on explosives, for the sole purpose of killing those who aren't like them. It should never be downplayed how close Islam is to trying to taking over the world by force. I don't see Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, or even Christians trying to do that....yet.

The issue here isn't religious extremes, in general. It's ALL about Militant Islam trying to kill Life as we know it.
