Re: Christian Taliban. Please inform me of beheadings, mass executions, mutilations, or torturing performed by Christians as Christians in the last century or two. There have been crimes committed by people from a Christian background on behalf of governments or criminal enterprises, but their crimes were not done for religious reasons. The same cannot be said for the Taliban, Isis, Al Qaida, etc.

Never said that extreme but in the context of American politics, Cruz is becoming our version of Christian Taliban with his religious statements. In America, as you are well aware, our religious Taliban are simply holier than thou fanatics, often marked with intolerance. Yes, you are correct, no one steps over the line into overt violence, even if some seem or do suggest it.
