A close confidant of Pope Francis, writing Thursday in a Vatican-approved magazine, has condemned White House chief strategist Steve Bannon as a supporter of "Christian fundamentalism" and "apocalyptic geopolitics."
In a damning article, the Rev. Antonio Spadaro, editor of the influential Jesuit journal La Civilità Cattolica, took aim at conservative religious support for President Donald Trump, accusing activists of promoting a "xenophobic and Islamophobic vision that wants walls and purifying deportations."

In a story entitled "Evangelical Fundamentalism and Catholic Integralism: A Surprising Ecumenism," Spadaro criticized the way some American evangelicals and their Roman Catholic supporters mix religion and politics, saying they demonized opponents and promoted a "theocratic type of state."
He added that their vision was "not too far apart" from Islamic fundamentalism.

He said that Bannon's worldview was not unlike that of Islamic fundamentalists.

He's right of course. Our verbatim followers of the bible are just as dangerous as verbatim followers of the koran.

Hold on sparky.

Fundies believe in end times as do the Jihadists (with slight differences between Sunni and Shia fundies).

But our fundies aren't going on murderous rampages as part of a larger policy. So get it right.

I would call controlling the gop and making it invade iraq on false pretenses a major muderous rampage.

1. That is leftist propoganda- they are largely preppers waiting for the fools that run things to cause a collapse.

2. The right wing militia types, like 99%, are not acting because of religion.

try again / fail.

The religious right never controlled the GOP. The GOP strategy was to bait them with pro-life, anti-gay and pro-Israel themes for their votes. They laughed at the fundies behind closed doors.

Your beef is with the Neocons so far as endless war goes.

Fine with me Pete,

Forgetting about religion --

The CIA, FBI and Homeland Security have ALL concurred as to the reality that RW extremists are more dangerous to the US than foreign terrorists.

I will choose to take THEIR word for it as opposed to Donnie Dumpster's ---

They might as well be one and the same.
