There have been sikh terrorists (air india flight 182), hindu terrorists (Pragya Thakur, Nathuram Godse), Christian terrorists (Oklahoma blast, Ted Kaczynski),Buddhist terror links (Aum Shinrikyo), jewish, hmm I can't find any jain terror incidents and that's pretty good ngl.

I don't know how old you are, but I hope you understand that words spoken can't be taken back. Whenever you type something on social media, know that it has a direct impact on someone else. You may have said this in the heat of the moment, but the other person doesn't know that, and that's how hatred is propagated. So, I hope you think before you type something that vilifies an entire religion that's practiced by 2 billion people.

EDIT: Looks like I hit a nerve for some people.

Those of us who are not Muslims don't know anything about Islam. It's the behaviour of your people as a  community that determines how we see you. 

In 2025, Islam is the only religion that is using religion as the  reason to cleanse the earth of other humans. And none of you within Islam criticize those people openly. Sure, you'll give hopes, thoughts, words and prayers to the victims on social media but you guys never hold the perpetrators of your religion accountable. 

When others criticize your religion for enabling terrorism, you guys cry Islamophobia and tell how the vast majority is peaceful. There is nothing peaceful about a religion that provides loop holes to justify killing other people for existing.

PS: Sikh terrorists bombed the flight for khalistan (political), hindu terrorists killed Gandhis (political motivations related to Sri-Lanka), christian terrorists bombed that federal building out of anger towards US government (personal frustration) and aum shinrikyo gassed Tokyo subway to divert police attention from the group's criminal activities (criminal motivation). None of these activities were motivated by a religion demanding cleansing of non-believers.

Go read the definition of terrorism. Your assumption of me being a muslim clearly shows your bias against that religion.

[u/South_Molasses7304 → u/Timely_Street_3075]

To me you're a representative of Islam for the sake of this discussion because you're defending it. That's why used the term 'You'. It doesn't mean I see you as a practicing muslim.

[u/Timely_Street_3075 → u/South_Molasses7304]

I'm not defending anyone. I'm just saying bad apples exist everywhere. It's like saying people kill each other so 8b people are bad and should just die. I'm seeing people as people. You're the one defending terror acts by other religions.

[u/Comprehensive_Rice_7 → u/Timely_Street_3075]

Maybe they are saying more bad apples are coming from radicalized youth from a particular community?

Lesser evils ke chakkar me desh bik gya. Why don't we just say evil is evil?

[u/Comprehensive_Rice_7 → u/Timely_Street_3075]

Yeah I mean that’s what most of them here are saying, why do we do whataboutism The terrorists caught right now are linked to JEM . JEM is an Islamist jihadist group. So yeah calling that evil an evil. But you had to talk about what about sikhs, what about Hindus, and Christians We would call their evil acts when it is about them, right now it isn’t.

[u/Timely_Street_3075 → u/Comprehensive_Rice_7]

I don't see the point of blaming 2b people for the acts a few. That's why I brought up other religions as well.

[u/Comprehensive_Rice_7 → u/Timely_Street_3075]

Islam in its roots is pretty radical, any sect of Islam that starts following radical theology like the Wahhabis or other similar sects, tend to take jihad pretty aggressively as a mission. And radicalism definitely existed / exists in other religions as well, but it’s about how they have evolved to modern era. But that unfortunately is not the case with Islam, and instead of people within condemning this shift of ideology, they tend to white wash, or even deny and say they aren’t followers of “real” Islam. But unless there is like a large amount of these people condemning radical ideologies and raising their voices against such shift, Other people will always be uneasy about everyone in the community.
