No, they're killing people in Syria, Iraq, Sudan, Nigeria, and the list goes on.... 

Let's not call one religion more violent than the other. ISIS is fucked up, but they are not the representatives of Muslims throughout the world. You don't hear people calling the friggin' Ku Klux Klan representatives of Christianity.

Who are the Christians who are doing that? All those countries have an islamic majority so odds are muslims are doing most of the killing there.

The KKK still exists? When was the last time you've heard of a terrorist attack from that group?

See that's just misinformed of you. Nigeria has 182 million people and 45-58% of the people are Chrisitian. (41% are muslim, and a small minority keep their indigenous faiths). The history of christians and muslims killing each other is long in this country.

When I said Sudan I was referring to South Sudan, which has a minority but hefty Christian population, but is irrelevant, because both the Muslims and Chrisitans in the area are equally terrorized by the (Christian) Lord's Resistance Army (ever heard of Kony, the guy who kidnapped thousands of child soldiers to fight and forced them to kill their own parents). 

And regarding Iraq and Syria, are you going to ignore the Iraq War and the giant clusterfuck Bush created tha lead to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people? 

Do you know the things Bush was saying when attacking Iraq? let me refresh your memory: "I am driven with a mission from God." "And then God would tell me, Goeorge, go and end the tyranny in Iraq." In an interview with the BBC. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2005/oct/07/iraq.usa

It is STILL taboo for United States presidents to admit they are not Christian. Obama is probably an atheist, but lord knows he could never admit it to the American public!  Oh yeah, "God Bless America!"

The Ku Klux Klan still exists, although it is considerably weaker and more cult-like than it was in the 60's (during its "renaissance" where they murded people associated with the Civil Rights Movements), and in the 1920's where they outright terrorized and murdered anyone who was not white or Chrisitian. The fact that they are no longer as powerful has nothing to do with my point. My point is that people associated Islam with ISIS and violence and it's retarded. No one EVER associated the Ku Klux Klan with Chrisitany, because it never represented nor the will of the majority of Chrisitians. The failure to think the same way regarding ISIS is blind and hypocritical. 

ISIS is equally hated by Muslims and Chrisitans. 

All this coming from a Christian American/Dutch guy, if it means anything to you.
