A wave of Christian Hate and Violence that never came to shore.
A good friend recently posted a clip of Bill Maher going on about the culture of hate in Christianity on her Facebook page. Because there's no off position on my smart ass switch, I responded by citing the extreme hatred and explosive violence of Mother Theresa and Martin Luther King.
Because Salon.com is Salon.com, after the Boston Marathon bombing they had to find the worst examples of Christian and far right violence to prove that Islam is not the problem but all religion. The article is below.
If you exclude people that just plain hated the gov't the number of deaths in the US by christian extremists since 1984 is 14.
14 deaths in 30 years does qualify as a culture of hate or violence.
Totaling all of the deaths in Salon's article will bring that number up to 188 over 3 decades - still not an avalanche of murder and mayhem.
