#1 All religions are absorbing the shocks of globalization.

Yeah, that's why the Pope is mobilizing his crusading divisions to oppose abortion. Sorry, read some history and you'll come to the conclusion that one religion has stood out for its consistent preference for violence.

And I see little evidence that there's any conflict within Islam. It looks more like there's jihadis and those who'd rather stay at home, winter jihadis, if you will. But I sure don't see a lot of anti-jihadi Mohammedans running around opposing the efforts of the jihadis.

We're going to fool around with these clowns until they go too far, as the Germans did, or until they burn themselves out, like the communists did. Otherwise there would be no need for the media. And we have to protect those jobs.

#2 "Democracy demands that the religiously motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than religious-specific, values,"

Tell it to your co-religionists, Barack-0.
