like on the news, they call the terrorists "islamic terrorists". why do they have to go by their religion? i personally think that it's not fair to others of that religion because it just makes some people think that that religion is automatically bad because they screwed up.
what do you think?

If they are Terrorists that follow Islam then they should be called Islamic Terrorists. Just like if they are Terrorists that follow Christianity, they should be called Christian Terrorists. I think if they are using their religion to justify their actions, their religion should be included in the terrorist label.

If people are terrorizing in the name of their religion, then it is completely appropriate. Just like when Christians blow up doctors' offices, they would be Christian terrorists. Or when Sikh terrorist blew up something in India. Call a spade a spade.
Nice job sticking up for the poor downtrodden terrorist though...

Affiliation cannot change its stripes...
Many lost religions desire to be noted as their "religion".
Oddly, this is the first sign of a cult.

Because you are too foolish to understand nor have a felt sense of the spiritual realities and the spirits involved

I notice that the news like to say Islamic terrorist, but I noticed they didn't say the christian shooter when that guy shot the people at the church a few weeks back.
Makes ya wonder don't it.

I think this is simply to differentiate them from Greek terrorists, Irish terrorist, Colombian terrorists, Communist terrorists etc.
