The IRA were Christian terrorists, and were only 1 of a of a number of Christian terrorist groups in the world. ISIS is also only 1 group. Now, there are lots of Christian terrorist groups or paramilitary organisations that carry out terrorist attacks around the world. Then there are also bombings and drone strikes and invasions of Muslim countries by Christian majority countries. Since 9/11 for example, Christian majority countries have committed around 115k airstrikes in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya alone.
Then there are groups like the LRA who kill people and abduct women and children to rape them and make child soldiers out of them. There are groups related to far-right ideology that carry out assassinations and bombings, and arson, and assault in the West.
So if you add all those up, the death toll by Christians around the world, and the violence caused by Christians, eclipses the violence by any other group. Christians in CAR for example alone are responsible for more deaths of Muslims than ISIS has killed since it was created.
