A scholar from Northwestern University argued recently that Christian Fundamentalism poses a greater threat to the United States than Islamic terrorism. Catherine M. Wallace, who is a faculty member at Northwesterns School of Medicine and a Christian herself, argues that fundamentalist access to United States armaments is the number one threat to the nations security. Wallace argues that because radical Christians are in positions of power and control the nuclear codes, they pose a greater danger to American society than do Islamic terrorists. If [anything Islamic] wanted to attack an American city, they had to hijack an airliner. If they want to blow up a concert, they need to put bombs on their own children and send young men in to kill themselves
that kind of radicalism [Christian fundamentalism] in control of nuclear codes was a much, much greater threat, Wallace claimed. According to The Chicago Maroon, the student newspaper of the University of Chicago, Wallace believes that a literal reading of the Bible is responsible for the threats posed by Christian fundamentalists. In Wallaces view, this radicalism stems from a literal reading of the Bible. Nobody in the ancient world would have read the Bible literally, Wallace said. The idea of a literal reading is a thoroughly modern phenomenon, according to Wallacechurch fathers of the past would discourage anyone from taking the Bible literally. Therefore, according to Wallace, the fundamentalists have it all wrong. Christian fundamentalism is a malignant form of Christianity, Wallace said. In her opinion, their literalist reading creates misconceptions of what the Bible means...

What utter nonsense!
Catherine M. Wallace needs to be exiled immediately to the middle east where she can live in peace.
The professor is absolutely right about Christians.
Since Hussein Obama has been letting in so many Christians (who were not carefully vetted) into the US, the mass shooting rate has sky rocketed. So many Americans have been killed and wounded by these Obama Christians. /sarc
Many times it takes a higher IQ than the general population has to see the truth.
Scott Adams had an amazing tweet earlier this week.
IF there are no sponsored terror attacks before Election Day, it means ISIS prefers Clinton. They have the means. Think about it.
He also called Clinton the Bully Presidential candidate - hash tag #Hillbullies
There ARE no coincidences...
“Amazing how many stupid people are in charge of educating our children.”
It is on purpose......they have to destroy the Minds of the children for their NWO-——just programmed “bots” who are incapable of thinking because idiots like her have been telling them that Heather Has Two Mommies for 3 decades now and that Christianity is Evil when it is the ONLY rational religion in the History of Mankind-—the worldview which gave us Free Will and Individual Natural Rights from God....and Modern Science and the Age of Reason.
And “bullseye”-—that is why ONLY Christianity is being ERASED (since the German’s declared “God is Dead’)-—because slaves can’t “think” for themselves. They are “group (non) thinkers” where emotions control Reason. They have to destroy the integration of the brain by a system of operant conditioning (like Pavlov’s Dog) so that dependency is embedded in our young and virtue is totally destroyed. Without virtue formation in children, our civil society will collapse (like now).
Fichte planned it with Wundt/Marx and then it came to America with the Cultural Marxists and John Dewey in the 30s.
We have to restore the Natural Family—local control of all schools-—get rid of no-fault “divorce”-—and reward marriage and staying home to raise your OWN children, so they learn Common Sense—understand Natural Law (male/female paradigm) so they are emotionally healthy and bonded to their parents and their correct role model so they are NOT warped and perverted. All behaviors/desires/”thinking” is learned-—we want to embed an understanding of REALITY (truth) in children)—not artificial reality like the Marxist utopian demands.....no reason, no logic with learning only from screens and in artificial institutions (total dehumanization).
Gee they have never been thus far, so why are they now?
Crap...typos. through = throw....fol = foil....just damn. High speed typing
Putin has got to be laughing at the so called institutions of higher learning.
Indeed. They do live in a Peter Pan reality bubble. Somebody get a pin and burst it for sanity and reality to get in.
I’m missing something.
Where does it say she is an atheist?
if christians had muslim or atheist values I would agree. but we do not.
Substitute Islam for Christian/Christianity and you have the exact explanation being used to distinguish radical Islamism/jihadists from mainstream Islam. The anti-Christian argument is an unintended parody.

What this stupid bitch is either unwilling or unable to realize is that if she were living in a Muslim country under Sharia law she’d be wearing a circus tent for a dress and be one of three or four other such females getting the tar beat out of her on a daily basis.
Southeastern is better.
She’s not much of a Christian if she doesn’t know about the Christian rule of “Thou shall not murder.” and the Islamic rule of “Surrender or die.”
They are gearing up for oppression.
And Republican leaders say nothing.
