The way it happens is that some guy decides to make sombody living in a cave
(or dying on a cross) happy.


That was a Cheap Shot (caps intentional). Name the last suicide
terrorist - one who deliberately kills large numbers of innocents
along with himself - who was motivated by any variety of
even-close-to-mainstream Christianity. Jim Jones and David Koresh
don't count - their followers numbered in the dozens-to-hundreds, not
the hundreds-of-thousands-to-millions that support radical Islam.
Christianity still produces martyrs - check what's going on in China
and Sudan - but those folks are being *killed by* non-Christians.


They then train for the mission, put up with a
"great lifestyle", and finally give their life to God.


True enough. The 9/11 killers lived in the US for several years,
living (but presumably not enjoying) a nearly-typical suburban
lifestyle.
