I don't remember Rudolph or McVeigh getting defined by their religion. They were American terrorists, not Christian terrorists. Why do you make an exception of Hasan? Its racist.


Was their religion responsible for their terrorism?

Islamic terrorism exists because of Islam. It is totally appropriate to tie the two together.

He comes from a very succesful and respected American family.

So did bin Laden.

You're simply looking for a way to make this apart of the al Qaida/American fight....

It IS part of the fight.

when he was in Walter Reed he was trying to convert people he was treating, that's why he got a bad review and transferred. He was harassing people

Rudolph and McVeigh weren't Christians.

In an article by United Kingdom’s “The Guardian” about McVeigh’s execution, we find this reference:

“In his letter, McVeigh said he was an agnostic but that he would "improvise, adapt and overcome", if it turned out there was an afterlife. "If I'm going to hell," he wrote, "I'm gonna have a lot of company."

The last real Christian terrorist I can think of was John Brown.
