I'm actually really tired of beating the dead horse of Christianity which has been thoroughly trounced and turned mostly benign while Islam in most forms as practiced by muslims today is actually a religion stuck in the dark ages committing untold horrors every day in the name of that religion. But I digress.
Maybe they're not blowing themselves up on buses but they're influencing politics heavily and always have. That's fucking dangerous.
When you have theists like Pence, Perry, DeVos, Price, Pompeo, and others in Trump's cabinet, it's a problem. When you have people like Ralph Drollinger leading weekly Bible study meetings with Trump's cabinet, it's a problem.
Drollinger denies being a Dominionist (this is a large group of American fundies who work diligently to turn American into a theocracy - run by their leaders, of course), but holds very clear Dominionist views. They are the reason his business "Capitol Ministries" preaches to DC lawmakers. He has a history of insulting any religion other than Protestant Christianity, saying openly that "god will not hear their prayers". He is virulently anti-homosexual. He hates Muslims, Jews, and Catholics (a false religion). He has said openly that female lawmakers who have children at home are sinners. He openly denies climate change because "god is in control of the planet, not man". He works to put RIGHTEOUS lawmakers, judges, leaders in power. And every week he is leading a group of (unqualified) uber-fundamentalist cabinet members who were rich enough to buy their way on to Trump's cabinet. Oh yes, they are dangerous. This is a long, long way from "cute". They're getting the power they crave, and do you know what group they hate even more than homosexuals? Atheists.
