Right wingers hate the Pope.

In July 2014, Bannon addressed a conference that was held inside the Vatican but was sponsored by a conservative Catholic group. Speaking via Skype, Bannon painted an almost apocalyptic vision of the state of the Western world.

"We're at the very beginning stages of a very brutal and bloody conflict, of which, if the people in this room, the people in the church, do not bind together and really form what I feel is an aspect of the church militant, to really be able to not just stand with our beliefs, but to fight for our beliefs against this new barbarity that's starting."

A barbarity, Bannon added, that would completely eradicate "everything we've been bequeathed over the last 2,000, 2,500 years," and which he clearly spelled out a few minutes later: "We are in an outright war against jihadist Islamic fascism. And this war is, I think, metastasizing far quicker than governments can handle it."

Yeah, I listened to a story about this yesterday. Bannon is about as apocalyptic as they come. Better start stocking your bomb shelters.

Incorrect from your first statement. He does not represent traditional Catholicism. He blessed the Superbowl for Heaven's sake.

Well, one could certainly argue that the Muslim's of the world, a majority, support the religious fundamentalists. I believe that there is a poll that 10% actively want it, that's 160 million and 50% of the 1.6 billion support those beliefs. That should be a sobering fact that should not be lost on people.

I don't understand why people think that Islam is peaceful. When as many as 800 mill followers beleive in Sharia law, it would scare the crap out of liberals. Everything liberals are about, they would cut your heads off first.
