Terrorism exists around the world--including here from extremist groups. There are some "Christian Identity" type groups here that encourage violence, for instance.

I do agree that terrorism and violence is more prevalent against Muslims than other groups, though.

If I committed an act of terrorism in the name of Jesus, there would be a rush of Christian leaders to condemn it. It seems that every time a Muslim kills someone in the name of his / her religion, CAIR and other like groups try to deny it / explain it / or fret about backlash.

When they declare war and commit an act of war that would become relevant. Until then, it's relativism.

Denounced loud and clear by the Christian community.

Well, the majority of conservatives condemn the actions of the few who advocate violence.

Your stand would hold more water if we heard emphatic condemnation from the majority of Muslims for the violence being perpetrated.

I'm listening.....
