theoterrorism
(extremely rare)
n

When a terrorist commits violent acts because of his religious beliefs, that violence can be described as theoterrorism.
If someone destroys a city bus with a bomb because he believes God wants him to do it, it's an act of theoterrorism. Many acts of terrorism fall into this category, coming from extreme interpretations of religious law or even psychological problems. Other kinds of terrorism are purely political, or for personal gain. The noun theoterrorism combines the Greek theos, or god, and terrorism, with its Latin root of terror, "great fear or dread."
