Funny how those who overtly or not-so-secretly despise religion, seem not to recognize the quasi-religious attributes of their own holy crusades.
Have you ever read Eric Voegelin's "The New Science of Politics"? It's a great book written by a witness to a dark history, and I think it explains a lot of what we are seeing in our current politics.
