People have invoked Christianity in the past to perpetrate great good and great harm. Christians have been bombarded with the message that the harm is the central aspect of Christianity, and they have been encouraged to abandon Christianity and religion and disregard the good that has been done and the central role is has played in their culture and government.

People have invoked Islam in the past and the present to do great good and great harm. The good is presented as proof that multiculturalism is good for the West and the harm is either ignored or excused as a justified reaction of the evils of the West.

It’s a suicide wish; it’s self-loathing, a neurosis by people who are unable to accept that people can and will do both bad and good and that it’s up to each individual to accept accountability for their own actions and their consequences.

I'm aware of the great harm. Tell me about the great good.
