If your religion had a lot of extremists carrying out terrorist attacks what would you do?

Asked by JLeslie (65463points) May 23rd, 2017 from iPhone

Would you be vocal and condemn the attacks? Would you feel the need to point out that most people in your religion want peace? Would you leave your religion if it became very pervasive? Would you do or feel nothing related to the religion, because the extremists really have nothing to do with how you identify with your religion?

Your choices aren’t just the multiple choice I named above, feel free to elaborate.

I remember when the Catholic priest scandal really hit the media, I actually met a couple of people who left the religion. They no longer wanted to identify as Catholic. That surprised me. I don’t know if they went to another religion, or just checked out of religion altogether.
