Radicalism Must Be Condemned No Matter Where It Is Found

Let me be extremely clear (because some people still don't get it).

Radicalism can occur anywhere. No country, religion, or people can be completely immune.

My own Church, for instance, supported the Inquisition ,a terrible event.

The people of Germany supported the Nazis and thus condemned millions of Jews, Catholics, homosexuals, and many other groups to death.

But the wrongs of the past do not support the wrongs of today.

The people of Germany should not be held responsible for the acts of their fathers and grandfathers. Each new generation should have a chance to prove that it can be peaceful and productive.

Right now the Radical Muslims are proving that their generation to be as bad as Nazi Germany and the Catholic Church during the Inquisition.
