Is religious extremism like alcoholism?

Some will use religion to subjugate a population especially a impoverished one. Never said they themselves are religous..

Sounds more like cult leaders.

I'd describe the leaders of IS as warlords, I believe they would have used anything to get power. Religion was the tool at hand as it gave them thousands of mentalists worldwide.

That's where your problem is. You are lost.

Not as lost as you are still with the Deltics, while I’m with Hitachi.

Religious extremists, if you want to use the term warlords fair enough.
Perhaps alcoholics can get together and use their fondness of the drink to take control of the world.
