Saw a brief note somewhere on the web the other day, so just to insure we get our terms right...
Islam - a religion.
Islamic - pertaining to precepts, concepts, traditions, etc., of Islam. Also a person who practices Islam...is "Islamic."
Islamist - an advocate or supporter of Islamic militancy or fundamentalism...one who believes that the religion should be the basis for an entire culture, including government.
There's no such fucking thing as "Islamic terrorism." It's "Islamist terrorism."
Reckon what we oughta call a Christian supporter of Christian militancy and fundamentalism? How's about a Christianist? Christianityist? Christist? I've decided it's probably just the more generic "Christian religionist", "Jew religionist", "Hindu religionist", "Wiccan religionist", etc., depending on one's delusional choice of relgion.
But I got to thinking, for the Christian religionists what about maybe a Hutarist? And...take a look at the mug shots of this pack of militant, violent, Hutaree cretins...
Jesus christ...if hollywood put together a cast of actors to portray a pack of Hutarists...a cry would go up from all across the fruited plain. "TYPICAL HOLLYWOOD CASTING, TRYING TO MAKE US LOOK LIKE CRETINS FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!!!" But no folks...these are the real people. To be a Hutaree Christian you must have a forehead the size of the bumper on a '52 Chevy,.
Makes Mohammed Atta look downright debonair, dontcha think?
A regular matinee idolish Islamist.
