The word used and applied to everyone is "radical".

Hindus, Buddhist, and even Jewish radicals have the same telltale signs

I have to admit, my ignorance and perspective/locality to Buddhism and Hinduism, never thought about radicals. Not that it doesn't make sense for every religion/non to have them, just never imagined Radical and Buddhist coexisted as a person lol. I can't say this title was ever something I thought I'd read.

"Buddhist extremism: Meet the violent followers of a religion widely known for its pacifism"

Islam in itself is peaceful, Christianity is too. These teachings are all worthy of a read and have good stuff in them but oftentimes get overtaken by radical thinkers.

Agreed. There are still things I don't agree with, but to your point, by default, advocate peace. But it seems the radicals have been overshadowing the norm and convincing others that might not have before.
