No, they aren't.
Yes they are if you take history into account. Islam is dominating the headlines right now but Christianity has resulted in 50X, or more, deaths of innocent people.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_and_violence

Let's assume there are a million Islamic Extremests who'd be willing to kill innocents via suicide bombings, planes, hatchets, guns, or brainwashing willing participants, etc.

Thats roughly 0.06% of the people who practice the faith of Islam.

You should stop pissing on a religion when 99.94% of the people who practice the faith are peaceful.
