    I have seen many times people associating the word Extrimist to names of certain religion.  In my opinion the word extrimist and name of religion can not go together as religion is there to bring peace to society.  I don't think any religion tells you to do bad things, so why do people associate the word extremist to religion?

      Is that a serious question? Are you saying there are no religious extremists? When the abortion doctors are murdered in the name of christianity, is that not extremist? When the Twin Towers fell, was that peaceful religion? Angry protests at service men's funerals?

      Which of those are not  acts of extremist?

        Hi, these are the actions of human not religion, no religion tells you to kill, murder or harm another person.  I am not a Christian but I know for sure that Christianity will never tell you to kill or harm another person.  Those people that are using the name of religion to kill are not belivers, they are only using religion as a weapon.  Thanks.

          They are following what they have been taught by their religious leaders. You can certainly try to do a two step shuffle away from it, but that doesn't change the facts.

          Religion breeds violence. Religion does nothing to contain the violence that is bred within it.  Those are simple facts.

            Which religious leaders are you talking about.  Are you talking about the real ones or the fake ones.  If people follow the teaching of religion then there won't be any violence, that's a simple fact.

              Ha ha. Very funny. You had me going. I see this is a joke.

              Sure I'll go along with it. There is only love to be found in religious texts. No one ever uses them for justification of violence towards others.

            I agree some do-a good many do not.

            I can say I wasn't taught to hate and kill or even make threats.


            I certainly am aware of extremist groups, and as a Christian abhor violent aggressive behaviour.

            It could also be said other organisations instruct their members to riot and kill,they are not deemed religious, though considered extreme.

            Religious groups are often also used as a scapegoat by the media, and non-believers,lets face it ,while we fight and bicker, behind closed doors many non-religious people fuelled by hate for various reasons scheme and plot.

          I've seen a pretty constant complaint on these forums that "that isn't Christianity".  Your comment would seem to be just more of the same - any church that doesn't agree with you isn't a church.  Christianity has repeatedly told its adherents throughout history to kill and injure others.  Things like gay bashing is only the most recent example.

          Nearly every religion has.

      Yes, any religion can become extremist, it's just ignorant. I mean, think of the mindset, "You don't worship the same God (or god/gods, depending) of love, peace, understanding, forgiveness, compassion and happiness that I do . . . you must die!" Some people take up a religion as if it were a sword, when it is clearly the process of attempting to lay your current weapons down. Just don't mistake religion for activism (though the two can ever-so closely be bound). What I mean by that is this, some religions feel that abortion is bad, but you can't judge an entire religion for an abortion center being bombed by a few of the religion's extremist members. We certainly aren't the ones to judge, but when it comes to figuring out who is to be held accountable, we always need to do our homework while never forgetting the compassion and forgiveness part of our own religious practices.

    Some people feel it is a little extreme for the Wesboro Baptist herd of animals to be protesting at the funerals of our servicemen and women. Some feel it is a little extreme for a Baptist Church in Virginia to be sponsoring the murders of abortion doctors. Armyofgod.com. and they think it is a little extreme for this church to be posting pictures of aborted fetusws on their website. Some people feel it's a little extreme for members of a religion to fight for the right to legally sacrifice their children with witch doctor style prayer healings. Other believe it is extreme to fight sex education and the availability of condoms in an effort to reduce teenage abortions.

    Religion, as it is defined in certain aspects can be of some value to humanity.

    What isn't of value to humanity is any mystic religion, which are not based on reality.

    Religion cannot be an extremist religion. Only the people who practice said religion can be extremists. However, if there are more members being extremists, then the collective must suffer from their individual actions.

    Life itself is a religion of sorts. People form patterns to their own living of life and constantly renew their patterns through small and/or large size adjustments. Thus, making each of them adaptable.

    Those who have a unique perspective, are the ones that are either trying or doing good in the world or too busy stripping it of it's resources. There isn't a balance. The create to destroy ideology needs to be abandoned.

    Mystic religion offers no balance, because it causes separation to begin with. It says believe and anyone who doesn't is against you, and will try to deceive you.

    Most religions are dangerous, simply because, it's always subjected to interpretation of the average subjective person. Looking at any and all religions of the world, none of them are objective.

    I think you are confusing what the word extremist means.  Jainism is an extremist religion.  The Amish are extremists.  That doesn't mean they are violent, it is a reflection of how far their religious practices are outside the mainstream of society.  The word extremisim is relative by its nature because it applies to the standards of a certain society.

    I will admit that if it wasn't for humans I wouldn't have a problem with religion. I have no idea what you are trying to say or prove with this question.If it wasn't for humans religion wouldn't exist. I have looked for years and haven't found the first pentacostal church of the zebra. As long as you have any form of religion you will have religious extremeists. Their are extremists in every aspect of human behavior.

    I don't understand when people make the statement in response to religiously inspired violence that it is not the religion which is at fault, but only people.  Well, what exactly is any religion made up of?  People of course.  Without people, there would be no religion.  Religion is a creation of human beings.  Before humans, there was no religion.  Certainly there is no evidence that any of the other animals which share this planet have ever formed a religion.  This distinction between people and religion is false, as you cannot have one without the other.

    And the idea that religion has only ever taught peace is a nonsense.  Read the Old Testament, where God gave orders for the Jews to slaughter their neighbours, even that they should dash out the brains of their babies onto the rocks, and that their "women with child should be ripped up."  Not exactly charming or peaceful.  And the humans who blow people up, or fly planes into buildings or murder doctors, or carry signs with the words "God hates fags" are not what I would describe as peaceful, yet they are doing all of these things in the name of their religion and their God.

    Extremism can fit just about any religion. The Abrahamic religions in particular have been the source of many religions conflicts, which is why they tend to get labeled as extreme more so than other religions. But I think you can find extremist in any religion.

    Every world religion has extremist groups. At the same time, every world religion, in its official and central body, has said that killing in the name of God and war for religious reasons is wrong, and not an expression of the faith when correctly understood. People who are full of pain, hurt, anger and confusion, piled generation on generation, create extremisms in any religion. Two good books on this topic are "Accounting for Fundamentalisms" and Mark Jeurgensmeyer's "Terror in the Name of God."

    You have to realize one thing...People on top tend to use the people on the bottom to do their dirty works. Religion can be used to brain wash people. When a person kills in the name of religion, its usually because their mind was convinced that the act will make tham a better person or will give them great rewards. A person who allows themself to be con-vinced to do something they will nomally not do, is because they a lazy to study the relegion on their own and waits to someone else to study and explain or tell them what is expected from them according to the religion. Even as a christian you leave youself expose for deception.

      Isn't that a bit of denial? If you interpret what you believe to be scriptures as a command toward extremism and feel compelled to attempt to please the God of those scriptures; you actively follow an extremist religion.

      Westboro Baptist is an extremist sect of Christianity. Imams who preach violence in the name of Allah are an extremist branch. This doesn't make all christians or muslims extremist; but the peaceful ones can't expect the world to pretend the extremist sects within their respective religions don't exist.

      Kill Witches

          You should not let a sorceress live.  (Exodus 22:17 NAB)



      Kill Homosexuals

      I don't agree with you. I don't blame the religion across the board for violence. But, it isn't the same as reading Catcher in the Rye. When you read a book you consider to be scriptures, it's a whole different ball game. You honestly believe that God is speaking through that book.

      If you interpret that as the word of a God and your interpretation incites you to violence, you are practicing an extremist form of that religion. It's pretty simple and you can't deny that people do that.

           I've been saying ...  when is it time to start  UNinterpreting scripture.

           If we read them without adding our own understanding upon them ...
        They say something totally diffrent than what we think that they say.

            Imagine if you can; the parable of the oak tree.

              Imagine if you can; each of the limbs and twigs as being interpretation of an oak tree.

              If you cut off all of the limbs; you now have a tree trunk having no limbs standing straight up in the air.

              That tree trunk is still an Oak tree!  Yes it is!
               But what of the limbs and twigs?
               They are not an Oak tree.

               You can imagine any sort of limbs now coming out of the tree trunk.
            You can imagine bananas on the limbs.
              That would be your interpretation.
            But the trunk of the Oak tree does not support bananas, apples or grapes no matter how much that we want to interpret it that way.

                      Fruit trees can be grafted in a number of ways.
                    I would doubt if a fruit bearing tree can be grafted onto a nut bearing tree.

                      I would also think that there would have to be a certain amount of DNA in common between the plants in question before it can be done.


                       Somehow my original comment has gone in a direction other than anything that I might have intended.
                       But it is good to know that a pepper plant and tomato plant can be married together.

      Liars For Jesus (TM) are exempt from hell. Far as I kun tell.

    Can a Religion be Extremist Religion?

    The truthful religion is peaceful and moderate; it abhors extremes.

      If you mean the religions perpetrated by the hate filled drivel in the bible or quoran then you are way wrong.

      Both books are full of the sort of instructions that have terrorists muslims killing each other as human bombs, and so called christians murdering non believers.

      Then you both have the gall to say anyone who quotes those words are doing so out of context, and make the same claims that they are in context when they apply to the religion that is not yours.

      Pure hypocrisy denying what is written in your own books is a way of life for you lot. lol

      That could be true. We'd have to rule out the Abrahamic religions as they have already shown they can create and harbor extremism and those who would carry out extreme acts.

      Look at both Islam and Judaism today after centuries of war. Here's where they both stand on their holy lands:

      Both are against any compromise with the other side.
      Both want the entire land of Palestine for their group.
      Both are entirely sure of their position.
      Both advocate and sometimes use violence to achieve their ends.
      Both are nationalistic.
      Both are intolerant of dissent within their group.
      Both demonize the other side, so that the members of Hamas, as viewed by the Israeli fundamentalists, sometimes sound exactly like the Israeli fundamentalists as viewed by Hamas.

      Peaceful and moderate, indeed.

        It is a wrong hypothesis and a generalization on extremes. There has been no bar on the non-believers of not being extremist persons.

                       Now that I am stupider  ...   I don't trust myself enough to make that determination.
