We don't see the same thing from Catholics when we represent "slutty" Catholic Nuns, or even from Jews when we see anti-semitic slogans (and anti-semitism is far worse than drawing Mo-Mo, come on).
Less often would be more fitting. There aren't that many fundamentalist catholics, but there are fundamentalist christians. And they certainly commit violent acts. Same goes for jews. There aren't that many fundamentalists, but those who are also commit violent acts. From the top of my head, the assassination of Rabin, the massacre Baruch Goldstein committed or more recently, in respond to Palestinian extremists murdering jewish youths, they murdered a Palestinian youth.
Fundamentalist religion is always poison, regardless of the particular god involved.
