I find Christian Extremists just as frightening as Muslim Extremists.
I’m with you there. The only reason that Christian Extremists don’t pose such an active threat of violence is because of
something called the Enlightenment, the secular movement in Europe that de-fanged Christianity. The Enlightenment
rendered the Church impotent, otherwise they’d still be burning witches and other assorted “heretics” with the same
gusto with which Muslim extremists behead witches in Saudi Arabia and strangle to death heretics and homosexuals
in Iran. As Nietzsche so aptly pointed out:
It is not their love of humanity, it is the impotence of their love which has prevented the present-day Christians from bringing us to be burnt at the stake.
