" What is the number of Islamic terrorists? 1 percent? I think it's closer to ten percent but the rest of the PC world will tell you, 'oh no, it's miniscule.' Well, OK, let's take you at your one percent. Look at the havoc one percent of Muslims causing in the rest of the world. You don't think one percent, half a percent of people here in the United States of radicals, of people who want to violently overthrow the government of the United States, is a problem?

" Christian terrorists a plenty for eons and can you say rapists too? "
Forum comment:
“ Not something many admit to or bring up often...I agree.
Most modern specifically American religions have collectively been responsible for mass rape, murder, enslavement, witch burning, domestic bombings/violence...recent history. Army of God, Hutaree, Timothy McVeigh, Eric Rudolph are domestic Christian based terrorist/groups. The KKK with strong Christian roots [Christian Identity - Aryan American Bloodline Religion] have conducted acts of terrorism, murder, rape, etc. against USA African Americans, Jews, Catholics and other social or ethnic minorities. Search: Christianity and violence
Granted only representing 1 [10] % +/- of the Christian faith, none the less, per Beck this should be just as alarming as his Muslim babble. Beck suffers from Fuzzy-Logic, fatalistic views and fear of own shadow.

Glenn Beck 2003
Beck's figure of ten percent is hardly new. In fact, Beck used the same statistic in his 2003 book, "The Real America." In it, Beck says that he has concluded, after "reading and prayer," that, while ninety percent of Islam is peaceful, "ten percent wants to see us dead." The remaining ten percent, he writes, is "composed of extreme radicals who have taken Islam through a time tunnel and twisted it into something ugly and barbaric."
