To be religious is to be an extremist.

Over 80% of people in the US believe in one religion or another. The country is not 80% extremists.

And there’s the problem with the idea of extremism to begin with. It’s only extreme because too different. The idea of extremist ideologies is inherently conservative, and really we should be judging ideologies by how they negatively or positively affect people.
