I don't think there is anybody that does not believe that extremist Muslims are completely out of touch with reality or the consequences of their beliefs. So yes, both.

There are the enraged, violent, gun-toting psychotic Islamic militants that I tend to equate with cult members. But then, there are belief systems in general (which need not be folksy rural superstitions), which I also find to be out of touch with reality. Pretty much anyone practicing odd rituals and harboring irrational opinions about tradition and funeral practices is going to catch this bug. We don't go anywhere when we die. We didn't come from anywhere when we were born. When bad things happen, without obvious cause and effect, it's not cosmic justice at work. To make claims otherwise is to be out of touch with reality, no? So maybe an "extremist Muslim" is No True Scotsman?
