ORIGINAL: Aylee Why shouldn't that be possible. You can believe that women should not be allowed out without a male chaperon, should wear a burkha, and only have sex with her husband after marriage without blowing up cars or arming teenagers. Lots of people have beliefs that they do not act on. What you just described is a Muslim Fundamentalist, not a Muslim Extremist. Extremist: A person who holds extreme or fanatical political or religious views, esp. one who resorts to or advocates extreme action. I think it would take an exceptionally labored view of the above definition to conflate the two terms.
