There have been Jewish radical terrorists -- the Jewish Defense League, for example. And fundamentalist Christians have killed, or advocated or excused the killing, of doctors who perform abortions. Also, certain fundamentalist Christians who believe the end times are near are doing everything they can support a strong and warlike Israel, because they believe the prophecy from the Book of Revelations that Aramageddon will begin with an attack on the Holy Land. They're trying to _make_ the prophecy come true by affecting foreign policy in that part of the world.
And if you were really talking danger, I'd include both the Communist Manifesto and the U.S. Constitution (largely because so many people who worship it, don't actually understand it at all, or their own rights and responsibilities under it).
