[Hoot Gibson]

You missed the point, while commenting on intelligence: white nationalist hate mongers once populated the south. A lot of so-called Christians sympathized with their "cause." If a pastor at that time refused to use the term "Christian" to describe these white nationalists (or sympathizers) would that, of a necessity, have been a cowardly act? In my view, the issue is debateable.

No, I never missed the point. It is cowardly not to call a terrorist act what it is.

Following Major Nidal Malik Hasan's terrorist attack at Fort Hood, during which he yelled, "“Allah akbar!”, as he killed 13 people, the Obama administration classified the action as an act of "workplace violence." That was pure cowardice on display. Obama finally acknowledged that Hasan had committed a terrorist attack six years after the incident.
