ISIS does not represent religious extremism, they represent religious literalism.
Not quite: they represent a specific, fundamentalist interpretation of Islam based around the 'Prophetic Methodology' (i.e. they behave like Muhammad), the restoration of the Caliphate, and fulfilling Qur'anic prophecies of armageddon.
