The individual is not supposed to think independently but to selflessly subordinate himself to the dictates of his religion and its theocratic representatives. We have seen this before in the West--it was called the Dark Ages.

This is absolute BS too.

I agree, this author is clearly not a History buff. He seems to still believe popular misconceptions concerning the middle ages. I guess its easier to believer a lie then to re-exam one's entire world view (In this writer's case, I assume "objectivism")

An objectivist calling another religion irrational is pretty amusing though.
