The problem isn't that someone who calls themselves Catholic can goe to extremes. It lists Catholicism as a UNIT, and Evangelical Christianity as a UNIT, not groups/individuals that would claim themselves as such. I don't have much of a favorable view of Roman Catholicism, but to compare Catholicism as a unit to the Taliban, Al Qaeda, or other similar groups is far more than a problem of apples and oranges, for apples and oranges are at least remotely the same shape.

it's always been the point. they did the same thing in Russia.
they care far less about muslim or other 'terrorists' than they do about the Christians.
Jesus already told us that.
"Who will save us from Western civilization?"
Georg Lukacs, Deputy Commissar for Culture
Bela Kun Bolshevik, Hungary, 1918
in hungary lukacs instituted what he himself called "cultural terrorism" - for the express purpose of taking down traditional cultures and especially the christian faith.
through all the wretched de-(un)-moralizing of the christian peoples, you could degrade them enough that -
1) many would just fall away into gross immorality
2) that itself would be your prima facie 'evidence' that christians were degenerate terrorists who need to be dealt with.
it's written right into the Patriot Act, diggs.
right in there.
circular illogic, but it looks right when strained through the media lens just right.
