It must be. It's been going on for 2000 years.

The idea of a religious crusade is one of the main reasons that some atheists hate religion in all it's forms. It's never right to kill, except in self-defence. To try to spread an idea by violence is absolute folly, rarely even possible and much less moral.

No. But it is okay to kill a religious crusader in self-defense.

No
And I know what your probably thinking, "If that's so, then why did the Christians kill during the crusades?" Answer: What they did WAS wrong, they were not obeying the precepts of God.

OFCOURSE this answer is subjective to everyones belief. As a believer killing another human being is wrong unless it is commanded by the Authority (i.e the Malachiites). The answer is no.

It is probably very annoying and inconvenient, from the dead person's point of view. So, that's not OK.
Also, in the opinion of people in many other religions, your religion is the wrong one. (Theirs are EACH the ONLY right one). So, that's not OK.
Well, that's two NOT ok's.

yes it can ok. some times death is a nessasary evil. when your oponets are soldiers that willingly fight and know they may dies and have no plans to surender then its ok. but if you purpusly kill the innocent then you are not worthy of heaven.
in other words all terroriests are going to hell

As an aggressor - no.
To defend one's self from an aggressor - yes.
