Well, I have no idea who is comparing Evangelical Christians with Islamist jihadis. Is anybody actually doing that?

I was talking about something completely different, to wit, the belief that Christians, in general, and Evangelical Christians, in particular, are being persecuted in the USA.

It's a meme which I cannot comprehend. Yet, I recognize that some believe it. And some of the ones who believe it are angry enough to try to revenge themselves on those they perceive as their persecutors.

<Yes if we go back a few centuries we can find the Crusades, the Reformation, the counter-Reformation, the Inquisition and other fun escapades. But lets get real - we have gotten over this - the Middle East hasn't.>

And I guess the "Irish problem" is not based on 2 variants of Christianity ?
