Nazi: Many conservatives have attempted to obscure the Nazi Party’s ties to extreme Christianism by asserting the Nazi officers dabbled in the occult or to risibly accuse the German National Socialist Party of being a left-wing, atheist organization. In fact the Nazis were staunchly Christian and relied heavily on the anti-Semitic theories and writings of Martin Luther, founder of the Protestant church.
The Ku Klux Klan
America’s earliest home-grown white
nationalist militia rooted their pro-segregation philosophy and
anti-black and anti-Jew violence in the belief that they were enforcing
God’s law on behalf of the chosen people, the white race.
The Otherside Lounge Bombing
In 1997, Christian
terrorist Eric Robert Rudolf planted and detonated a homemade bomb at
the Atlanta LGBT bar the Otherside Lounge. Four people were injured. A
second bomb failed to detonate.
So-called “pro-life” organizations have become some of the most
dangerous and violent religious zealots in the U.S. today. It is hard to
isolate any single incident because over the last two decades, groups
like Operation Rescue have set fire to women’s health centers, murdered doctors like Kansas’ Dr. George Tiller in cold blood, and gunned down clinic workers, nurses and bystanders.
