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"

He was very like Albert Speer.

It was an unintended consequence - Nixon and Goldwater wanted the Republican Party to control the preachers, not the other way round.

Well then, Goldwater was an idiot.

I find it hard to disagree with that assessment.
