Is the ''Only a minority of Muslims are radical'' true?

[Aaran]

I agree with you that they are the ones that are actually taking their books at their words, and that the moderates are the ones that skew and cherry-pick passages. However, I'd be wary of deeming people as "not Muslims or Christians in any meaningful sense of the word". It's not our job to decide who is and isn't a 'true Christian' or 'true Muslim', as there isn't really a definite standard code that would define a 'true believer'.

Now that you mention it, I can see how an atheist telling a Muslim or a Christian that they aren't a good Muslim/Christian, is sort of ridiculous. We should leave it to them to say that to one another.
