So you believe that the number of terrorist attacks committed by Christians in the name of their religion are on par with Muslims'?

Depends on who you consider a terrorist. ; )

Honestly, it's not current numbers I worry about; it's future numbers. I believe there are strains in current American thought that are entangled with radical Christianity in a way that could easily turn violent. All it takes is a spark. (Tell me you can't see Donald Trump's fanclub starting a war against another Muslim country for religious/economic reasons.)

Are you concerned there'll be a Christian equivalent to ISIS?

Not per se, at least not in the near future. I think it'll have a lot more official backing and be able to phrame itself in terms that also appeal on non-religious grounds. (Like I said earlier, economics is a major motivator.) But I do think religion will play a part, and I think this stuff needs to be understood in more broad terms than just Islam in order to stop it from cropping up elsewhere.

Actually, white Christian terrorists have caused so many more acts of terrorism than Muslims

When's the last time Christian terrorists pulled off something like the events in Paris?

You wanna play the quantity v. quality game? Google some stats on mass shootings per year in the USA, they're scary.

And it goes back to how many of those incidents are examples of Christian terrorism and whether or not any of them were carefully coordinated attacks carried out by multiple individuals.

And in what way are they connected to the presumed religion of the shooters? Apples and oranges.
