Christian Extremists vs. Islamic Extremists

[guno]

They are more alike then different

Christian and Islamic extremists have both differences and similarities. The differences lie in several factors such as each group's political enemies and geographic location. But a prominent similarity can be found in their world views, which are often rigid interpretations or skewed versions of particular religions. These misinterpreted teachings often result in actions that lead to violence.

"These misinterpreted teachings often result in actions that lead to violence."

When was the last time Christians raped and/or tortured and/or brutally butchered groups of innocent Islamics? No equal playing field there.

The difference is Moslems have doctrinal authority for their violence against non believers. Christians don't.

Or, to put it at the other end of the spectrum, this from the Judeo-Christian manual of instruction:
... Leviticus, "Love your neighbor as yourself, I am God."
I, God, tell you to be decent to other people.

It is the basis of western civilization.
None other compares.
