You fail to comprehend the argument. Let's make it simpler:

1. Religion is not the equivalent of terrorism
2. Terrorism is not the equivalent of religion
3. Most people, including most religious people, are not terrorists
4. Some terrorists are religious people but some are not
5. Some terrorists are Jewish (remember the King David hotel?) and some are not
6. Terrorism is a methodology
7. The entire point of terrorism is to have a relatively small action create a much larger reaction
8. Sometimes terrorism is employed in nonreligious circumstances such as the environmentalists who set fire to buildings

You are a bigot when you see the actions of individuals and then apply your feelings toward those individuals to all members of their 'group.'
