Individual nuts are individual nuts. Period.

That's exactly what I'm saying. That no extremist sect is less violence prone than another particular sect of extremists.

I think your statements are bigoted...[j]ust because you've made them about fundamentalist Christians does not exclude them from being bigotry.

BIG-ot (n): one intolerantly devoted to his own church, party, or opinion.

Oddly, you seem pretty adamant in the defense you've mounted of one particular religion...fitting the above definition (from Merriam-Webster) more closely than my attempt to present an all-encompassing picture that excludes no particular religion.

Again: my opinion is that the fundamentalist sect of any religion, bar none, is dangerous. In fact, I named both Islam and Christianity, not just the latter. And there are certainly plenty more.

If anyone, you're the bigot, pal.
