We currently have an ISIS thread here for current events related to ISIS, and what they are doing across the world. This thread, however, will be to discuss the religious influences (or lack of) on the ISIS group as a whole. Do you feel ISIS truly is influenced by religion, or are they simply a militant group that does not properly or accurately represent Islam? Do you believe that ISIS is only made up of the most extreme of the religion, or does the religion itself possibly need some sort of reform?
Also, how do you feel when our current administration calls for people to "consider the Crusades" in response to ISIS actions?
Here are a few links related to the ties between ISIS and Islam. Please keep discussion here civil.
