teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

^ I remember Sarah Huckabee Sanders at one of the early press briefings after the chump gained the office saying, "Well, that would be fake news!". I knew that Orwell's fiction wasn't fiction any longer. I'd like to see Orwell's fiction go back to that.
